Draw the ozone layer. This is not a main layer of the atmosphere, but plays an important role in how it works. This is also where the ozone is found, which absorbs ultraviolet radiation. The ozone is between the stratosphere and the mesosphere. Its symbol is 0 3 because it is made of three oxygen atoms.

9 9 Absorption of UV radiation in the gaseous atmosphere is primarily due molecular oxygen O2 and ozone O3. Figure 6.5 Spectral absorption cross-sections of O2 and O3 NOTE: a) Bands of O2 and O3 at wavelengths < 1 µm are electronic transitions. b) These absorption bands are relatively uncomplicated continua because practically all

) and ozone (O 3). These are formed as a result of natural and human activities. There are also a number of entirely human-made greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as sulphur hexafluoride (SF 6), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs). These gases accumulate in the atmosphere. Significant increases in concentrations of CO 2 ...
