Botkin and Keller Environmental Science 5e Chapter 25 Ozone Depletion

Botkin and Keller Environmental Science 5e Ozone A form of oxygen in which three atoms of oxygen occur together. Chemically active and has a short average lifetime in the atmosphere Forms a natural layer high in the atmosphere that protects us from harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun A pollutant when present in the lower atmosphere

Botkin and Keller Environmental Science 5e Ultraviolet Radiation and Ozone Ozone Shield: Stratospheric ozone layer that absorbs ultraviolet radiation Ultraviolet A: –Longest length, least energetic –Can cause some damage to living cells –Transmitted to earth Ultraviolet B: –Intermediate wavelength –Cause of Ozone Problem Ultraviolet C: –Shortest wavelength/ Most energetic

Botkin and Keller Environmental Science 5e Ozone Depletion and CFCs Ozone depleted due to emission of CFCs CFCs are stable and have a long residence time in the atmosphere In stratosphere, release chlorine and enter into catalytic chain reaction- depletes ozone More UV radiation reaches lower atmosphere
