"OZONE"
       

1.  OZONE: About 12 ozone molecules for 1 million air molecules.
2.  OZONE: Antarctic Ozone Hole expands in winter shrinks in summer.
3.  OZONE: Been measured by the British since 1956.
4.  OZONE: Concentration in stratosphere remains constant.
5.  Ozone: Contains 3 Oxygen atoms (O3).
6.  OZONE: In in the stratosphere helps blocks out Ultra Vilot (UV) rays produced by the sun.
7.  OZONE: In the tropsphere produce by lightning discharges.
8.  OZONE: Forms in the stratosphere by combining Molecular  Oxygen (O2) with Atomic Oxygen (O).
9.  OZONE: Most Ozone over Antarctica comes from S. America
10  OZONE: Near the earth's surface causes pollution. the "Green House Effect. Harmful to human,
           animals, plant and marine life. With the help of the sun produces "Photochemical Smog".
11. OZONE: Ozone does not penetrate deep into the ocean.
12. OZONE: Ozone Hole forms in the Arctic, however it is much smaller.
13. OZONE: OZONE HOLE phenomenon first observed in 1980s 
14. Ozone: Smells Like Eggs. Bluish in color.
15  OZONE: Some causes of OZONE Depletion: Solar Cycle. Suns output. Sun necessary for OZONE to form.
16. OZONE: Some destroyers of OZONE. Chloroflurocarbons (CFC's). Chlorine/Flurine/Carbon which are in
            aresols & coolents. Automobiles primary of (CFC's).
17. OZONE: There are about 12 parts per muillion from abt 3 to 35 miles. as low as 1 ppm surface to 3 miles up.
18. OZONE: There are fluctions from volcanic eruptions.
19. OZONE: The Ozone Hole forms only in Antarctica due to the rare winter conditions.
20. OZONE: Used over 100 yrs. to purify water. Acts 3000 times faster than chlorine. 99& of bacteria in drinking
           water can be killed with ozone.
21. OZONE: UV rays at max 10am to 2pm. Cause skin cancer sun burn and cataracts.
22  OZONE: 90% located between 6-30 mi above earth.

"Ozone Hole Antarctica"

1. Ozone levels drop during extreme | 1. During the summer months, Ozone
   winter over cold Antarctica.     |    levels rise and the Ozone Hole
                                    |    shrinks.
2. Sunlight is necessary for the    |

   Oxygen (O).                      |


1. Ozone has been measured over Antarctica since 1956 by the British.

2. Some natural causes of Ozone deplection. a.A solar Cycle. The 
   waxing and wanning of the Sun's output.

3. Ozone loss is accelerated because of the extreme cold temperatures
   in wintertime which contain ice particles. These is particles 
   transform CFC's and Halons into destroying compounds.

4. Wind patterns during the winter spring isolate the Antarctica
   Stratosphere from the warmer air in the north.
