A region in the upper atmosphere that has high concentrations of ozone (triatomic oxygen, 03). The ozone layer protects the Earth by absorbing the Sun’s high-energy ultraviolet radiation.

The layer of ozone that begins approximately 15 km above Earth and thins to an almost negligible amount at about 50 km, shields the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. The highest natural concentration of ozone (approximately 10 parts per million by volume) occurs in the stratosphere at approximately 25 km above Earth. The strato [..]

A region in the upper atmosphere that has high concentrations of ozone (triatomic oxygen, 03). The ozone layer protects the Earth by absorbing the Sun’s high-energy ultraviolet radiation.

A layer in the Earth's atmosphere at 15-30 km altitude in which ozone is at higher concentration than at lower or higher altitudes. The ozone is created by a series of processes beginning with the splitting up of the oxygen molecule to single oxygen atoms. The ozone layer protects the Earth from UV radiation harmful to life.

A thin layer of ozone which provides protection from the sun's harmful UV radiation. Ozone consists of three oxygen molecules which in turn break up to form oxygen (with two oxygen atoms) and then form ozone again. The current increase in the occurrence of skin cancer is thought to be due in part to the depletion of the ozone layer. The ozone [..]

is the ozone in the stratosphere is very diffuse, occupying a region many kilometres in thickness, but is conventionally described as a layer to aid understanding.

The ozone layer is a thin veil of ozone (O3), a colourless gas. Most atmospheric ozone is found between 15-35 km above the surface of the earth in a region known as the stratosphere. The ozone layer is beneficial to life on earth as it absorbs most of the harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation emitted by the sun.

Where most of the Stratospheric Ozone is concentrated, in the lower stratosphere, between 9-18 miles above the Earth's surface.

A layer of ozone 12 to 15 miles above the earth's surface which helps to filter out harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun. It may be contrasted with ground-level ozone, which exists at the earth's surface and is a harmful component of photochemical smog. A primary concern is that compounds such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), used in [..]

Ozone is one of many gases in our atmosphere. There is not a lot of it close to the Earth's surface, but higher up it forms a thin layer in the sky. That ozone layer helps plants, animals, and hu [..]

An atmospheric layer that contains a high proportion of oxygen that exists as ozone. It acts as a filtering mechanism against incoming ultraviolet radiation. It is located between the troposphere and the stratosphere, around 9.5 to 12.5 miles (15 to 20 kilometers) above the earth's surface.
