04.ozone Layer, Too

Ozone

 Ozone

can absorb short wave rays of solar

radiation (cosmic rays, ultraviolet rays)that injury living things in the earth and has protective function.

Ozone  But

affected by pollutants including

chlorofluorocarbons, the ozone content is decreasing in stratosphere, which lead to ozone cavity with decreasing of ozone.

Ozone

 Thus

some solar short wave radiation that can reach the

earth will increase and affect climate, agriculture and ecological system and lead to increasing of incidence of human skin cancer and cataract.

Ozone We

will discuss it in the later chapter .
