PPT-WHERE IS THE OZONE LAYER?

Stratosphere Ozone Concentration ppm SGC Fig 311 OZONE Sources Ozone is produced naturally in photochemical reactions in the stratospheric ozone layer good ozone is decreasing. Stratospheric ozone: the natural cycle Produced in stratosphere by dissociation of oxygen atoms exposed to short-wave radiation Reaction accounts for most of adsorption of ultraviolet sunlight () as w Layer.
