GEOG 2110 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Ionosphere, Allotropes Of Oxygen, Aurora
Document Summary
Stratosphere temperature profile increases with heat ozonosphere heats up the gases. Troposphere temperature profile decreases with height layer that supports life. 90% of total mass of atmosphere and most of water vapour, clouds, air pollution. Protective atmosphere ionosphere and auroras planets magnetic field and charged particles emitted by the sun atmosphere. Formation of ozone radiation with wavelengths <0. 2 micrometers (uv) Breakdown of ozone yellow - green and red are caused by o2. Ozone is unstable and decomposes o3 + o = o2 + o2.
