Increasing ozone concentration in the atmosphere can threaten food security due to its effects on crop production. Since the 1980s, ozone has been believed to be the most damaging air pollutant to crops. In Malaysia, there is no index to indicate the reduction of crops due to the exposure ...
Oxygen atoms are very reactive chemically. We call them electrophilic or “electron loving” because the oxygen atom seeks to bind to other electron-rich sources, especially itself. Thus oxygen is present in our atmosphere primarily as the molecularO₂. Another Form A small percentage of atmosph...
Step-by-Step Solution:1. Definition of Ozone: Ozone is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms, represented by the chemical formula O3.2. Location of Ozone: Ozone is primarily found in
A critical analysis has been made on contribution on ozone depleting substances (ODS) on the decline of ozone concentration at Antarctica. The nature of ye
which make up about 2 million of every 10 million air molecules. Despite the relatively small percentage of ozone molecules in the earth's atmosphere, it is extremely important for life on earth. Ozone molecules absorb the UVB ultraviolet light that does so much damage on the planet. Ozone he...
Long-term ozone depletion rates (percentage change) have been computed from 13 years of Nimbus 7/Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data as a function of latitude, longitude, and month for the period January 1, 1979, to December 31, 1991. In both hemispheres the amount of ozone has ...

The depletion of the Ozone describes two closely related but distinct phenomena which have been repeatedly observed since the latter 1970s. These are; 1. the steady decline of roughly 4% of the amount of Ozone existing in Earth’s general atmosphere, and 2. a much more significant depletion ...
Variations of nitrate and sulfate in the atmosphere on days of high and low particulate matters Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the percentage of NH associated with nitrate and sulfate decreased and the percentage that could be explained ... Chung‐Yih Kuo,Hsin‐Hong Chen,Jeng‐Fu...
These events were consid- ered as being a result of the emission of ozone-depleting substances into the atmosphere and the polar vortex, which usually appears in winter and breaks up in late spring. The polar vortex turns out to be a strong barrier for the air mass exchange between polar ...
