We found that ozone exposure is increasing worldwide, with the largest increases in population-weighted ozone concentration and ozone-attributable mortality rate occurring in peri-urban areas, where ozone exposure is currently disproportionately affecting health.
2 ημέρες πριν · Protecting the ozone layer for people, nature and climate stability. We are in a busy and exciting period of law-making by the international environmental community. In a few short weeks, we will have had the Convention on Biological Diversity COP, the climate change COP 29, the desertification COP, and negotiations on a legally binding ...
3 Ιουν 2024 · Here we quantify both national and imported contributions to O3 and their related mortality burden across 813 contiguous regions in 35 European countries, representing about 530 million people.
13 Μαρ 2023 · The stratosphere includes the zone commonly called the ‘ozone layer’. It plays a crucial role in keeping the planet habitable by absorbing potentially dangerous ultraviolet (UV-B) radiation from the sun. Before its depletion, the ozone layer typically absorbed 97 to 99% of incoming UV-B radiation.
26 Μαΐ 2015 · The good news is that the stratospheric ozone layer absorbs all UV-C, the most deadly form, and even a thinned ozone layer is unlikely to let much through. The intact ozone layer does, however, let through some UV-A, especially when the sun is high in the sky, and a very small amount of UV-B.
