including mortality and morbidity. Data from monitoring sites worldwide show levels of ozone often exceeding EU legislation threshold and the more restrictive WHO guidelines for the protection of human health. Well-established evidence has been produced for short-term effects, especially on respiratory a...
The causes, mechanism and bio-effects of ozone layer depletion on humans were addressed. It is revealed that introduction of聽Chloroflourocarbons (CFCs) in the environment is the most rated cause of said depiction. Ozone depletion is allowing the UV radiation to earth surface. The exposure to ...
To date, a quantitative understanding of surface O3 pollution effects on Chinese population mortality (Shang et al., 2013), crop yield (Carter et al., 2017) and forest productivity (Li et al., 2017, Li et al., 2018) is limited. A recent study reported that the exposure of humans and...
The ozone molecules in the stratosphere and the troposphere are chemically identical. However, they have very different roles in the atmosphere and very different effects on humans and other living beings, depending on their location. A useful statement summarizing ozone's different effects is that ...
Effects on Humans Researchers have concluded that the high levels of UV light that are allowed to enter Earth’s lower atmosphere by the permeations in theOzone layercaused increased levels of skin cancer in humans all over the world. It is a significant factor in the development of malignant...

Although ozone (O3) has been shown to induce inflammation in the lungs of animals, very little is known about its inflammatory effects on humans. In this study, 11 healthy nonsmoking men, 18 to 35 yr of age (mean, 25.4 +/- 3.5), were exposed once to 0.4 ppm O3 and once to filtere...
in addition to effects on humans, the corrosive nature of ozone can damage plants and trees. high levels of ozone can destroy agricultural crops and forest vegetation. avoiding ozone exposure to protect yourself from ozone exposure, you should be aware of the air quality index (aqi) in your ...
Studies are cited that cover the toxic effects of ozone on humans, animals, and plants. Although many reports cite the effects of ozone generated as a photochemical oxidant from air pollution, others simply look at the basic biological effects of ozone without discussing its source. The topics ...
