    Extractions: campaign against skin cancer This year, almost 300,000 Australians will visit a doctor or specialist to have a skin cancer (or cancers) removed. Sunburn caused by overexposure to ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation is known to be the primary cause of skin cancer. To help people choose appropriate levels of protection against skin cancer, the Bureau of Meteorology issues daily forecasts of the UV Index. UV Index forecasts are issued as a map of Australia, a numerical value with descriptive category, and as a graph, for capital cities and towns across Australia. The map, text and graphical forecasts are available via the Bureau's website. The mass media also receive text forecasts along with other Bureau services. Commencing December 2002, the Bureau of Meteorology, Cancer Council Australia and Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) adopted the World Health Organisation Global Solar UV Index, for reporting the level of solar UV danger in Australia. The progressive adoption of the Global UV Index by other countries will heighten the awareness of the sun safety message for tourists and residents alike. The sun emits three types of ultraviolet radiation – UVA, UVB and UVC. UVA penetrates deep into the skin causing damage like wrinkles and discolouration. Exposure to UVB causes sunburn, a skin reaction where blood vessels expand and leak fluids, producing inflammation, pain and redness. Sunburn, whether severe or mild, can cause permanent and irreversible skin damage. Cumulative exposure to UV radiation and the number of severe sunburns received, especially during childhood, increases the risk of developing skin cancer.

    Extractions: The troposphere and the stratosphere are the two lowest layers of the atmosphere. The troposphere is the layer next to Earth's surface. On the average, it extends 11 km to the top of the troposphere which is called the tropopause. In the troposphere, the temperature generally decreases with altitude. The reason is that the troposphere's gases absorb very little of the incoming solar radiation. Instead, the ground absorbs this radiation and then heats the tropospheric air by conduction and convection . Since this heating is most effective near the ground, the temperature in the troposphere gradually decreases with increasing altitude until the tropopause is reached. This is the beginning of the stratosphere. In the stratosphere, the temperature remains isothermal until about 20 km. Then a strange thing happensthe temperature actually begins to increase with altitude. From a temperature of about -56.5C at 20 km, it increases to -2.5C at 50 km. The reason for this temperature fluctuation is that ozone absorbs the uvb radiation in the lower atmosphere. Higher in the atmosphere, however, normal diatomic oxygen absorbs the uvc radiation. Once it is absorbed, it is reradiated at different wavelengths, thereby warming the stratosphere. At the top of the stratosphere (about 50 km, the stratopause), the temperature begins to decrease again as the altitude increases. Above the stratopause, in the mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere harmful gamma rays and X-rays are absorbed.

26. The Ozone Hole Tour : Part II. Recent Ozone Depletion
    that lead to ozone depletion occur every year, the effect they have on the ozone is altered by the meteorology of the atmosphere above Antarctica.  
    http://www.atm.ch.cam.ac.uk/tour/part2.html
    
    Extractions: Tour Home Page Part I ... Part IV Part II: Recent Ozone Loss over Antarctica There are now many measurements and observations of the changes in ozone that occur over Antarctica. Such measurements come from ground based instruments at the Antarctica research stations, from aircraft during scientific missions and from satellites. Ozone loss was first detected in the stratosphere over the Antarctic ( see Part I ). Although mid-latitude and Arctic depletion has also been observed, the loss is most dramatic in the lower stratosphere over the Antarctica continent, where nearly all the ozone is destroyed over an area the size of Antarctica within a layer in the lower stratosphere that's many km thick. The graph to the right shows the measured total ozone above the Halley Bay station in Antarctica. Each point represents the average total ozone for the month of October. Note the sudden change in the curve after about 1975. By 1994, the total ozone in October was less than half its value during the 1970s, 20 years previous. This dramatic fall in ozone was caused by the use of man-made chemicals known as ' halocarbons ' which include the well-known CFCs commonly used in fridges and so on. These CFCs had made their way into the upper atmosphere where the much stronger UV radiation from the Sun had broken them down into their component molecules, releasing the potentially damaging chlorine (and bromine) atoms, which, given the right conditions, could destroy ozone. We'll learn more about the chemistry behind the loss of ozone in Part III of this tour.

    Extractions: Tour Home Page Part I ... Part IV Part III. The Science of the Ozone Hole Evidence that human activities affect the ozone layer has been building up over the last 20 years, ever since scientists first suggested that the release of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) into the atmosphere could reduce the amount of ozone over our heads. The breakdown products (chlorine compounds) of these gases were detected in the stratosphere. When the ozone hole was detected, it was soon linked to this increase in these chlorine compounds. The loss of ozone was not restricted to the Antarctic - at around the same time the first firm evidence was produced that there had been an ozone decrease over the heavily populated northern mid-latitudes (30-60N). However, unlike the sudden and near total loss of ozone over Antarctica at certain altitudes, the loss of ozone in mid-latitudes is much less and much slower - only a few percentage per year. However, it is a very worrying trend and one which is the subject of intense scientific research at present. More on this in Part IV of the tour. Many of these findings have since been reinforced by a variety of internationally supported scientific investigations involving satellites, aircraft, balloons and ground stations, and the implications are still being quantified and assessed. More about these international investigations in Part IV.

28. Ozone Variability With Longitude
    Research study to determine whether stratospheric ozone distribution in the differ from one another in the meteorology which in turn affects ozone  
    http://marine.rutgers.edu/mrs/education/class/vito/vito.html
    
    Extractions: Longitudinal variability in the Stratospheric Ozone distribution Stratospheric ozone distribution over the Arctic does not exhibit the same simmetric pattern as in the Antarctic. This and other observations led to speculate that there might be a longitudinal effect. ANOVA was used to test this hypotesis No cogent reasons appeared leading to accept it. Introduction Ozone geographical distribution is the result of complex interactions involving its formation, destruction and transport as well as the meteorology of the stratosphere. For background information about ozone chemistry and distribution follow the link to the stratospheric ozone webpage As can be seen in the example pictures, during the anctartic spring when a "hole" is present, ozone concentartion are fairly simmetric over Antarctica due to the stability and persistance of the anctartic vortex. This stabilty may be partly expalined by the central simmetry of the continent, hogeneously sorrounded by the ocean. In the Arctic, on the other hand, the ocean is sorrounded by land, with the exception ot the notable exception of the North Atlantic-Norwegian sea. Ozone concentration over the Arctic, as a matter of fact, does not in general show a symmetric distribution. The hypotesis formulated for this study is that this may produce a longitudinal distribution, so that areas at different longitudes may experience, over the long term, different average concentrations. In particular, it was speculated that an effect should show up in or around the Norwegian Sea, the area of asimmetry. There is also some evidence in the literature of a possible longitudinal effect [3] since some ground-based stations in the northern hemisphere (e.g. Iceland) have exhibited a tendency to an increased total ozone concentration, contrary to the general trend.

The centre brings together Monash University , the Bureau of Meteorology , the CSIRO Divisions of Atmospheric Research and Telecommunications and Industrial Physics and Silicon Graphics Pty Ltd/Cray Research in a collaborative program of meteorological research and education. Located at Monash University, the CRC is one of the principal centres in Australia for research and graduate training in the Meteorological Sciences. Our understanding of climate variability and global change comes from many sources: studies of past changes in the atmosphere and climate, data from current observing systems and field experiments, and simulations involving mathematical models. Each contributes to our knowledge of the fundamental processes that control the physical, chemical and biological components of the Earth system. Understanding these processes is essential for improving the predictive models being developed to aid society and to assist policy makers to plan for and minimise global change. Our Centre is contributing to the international research effort to improve the understanding of some of the key processes that govern the current state of the atmosphere and its variability.

Explore Air: Explore Air NPS Air Monitoring Skip to Content Great Basin National Park, Nevada The NPS Air Resources Division operates a network of air quality monitoring stations (sometimes refered to as the Gaseous Pollutant Monitoring Network - GPMN) that measures primarily meteorological parameters and ozone. Sulfur dioxide is measured using continuous analyzers or with filter samplers in a subset of the network. The 1991 NPS Monitoring Strategy contains the monitoring plan that includes long-term "trends sites" and 3-5 year "baseline sites." Many stations are now operated jointly with the EPA CASTNet. The gaseous pollutant monitoring program historically concentrated on determining the levels of two gaseous air pollutants, ozone and sulfur dioxide, which are most toxic to native vegetative species found in NPS units at levels at or below the National Ambient Air Quality Standards NAAQS). Other gaseous pollutants (e.g., other photochemical oxidants, nitrogen compounds, and toxic organic compounds) are also of interest to the NPS because they relate to physiological, morphological, or historical injury to park biological resources, or to global climate change.

The NPS Air Resources Division has established an extensive network of air quality monitoring stations to characterize air quality in national parks. The NPS air quality monitoring program has three primary components: visibility, atmospheric deposition, and gaseous pollutant monitoring. In addition, meteorological monitoring is conducted at many locations to aid in the interpretation of measured air pollution levels. Within each monitoring program are various elements addressing special NPS monitoring needs. In most instances, NPS monitoring efforts complement air pollution monitoring efforts conducted by other federal, state, and local agencies.

You will get more from this topic if you have mastered the basics of electromagnetic radiation Printer-friendly version of complete topic A natural balance keeps us well supplied with ozone Up in the stratosphere , small amounts of ozone are constantly being made by the action of sunlight on oxygen. At the same time, ozone is being broken down by natural processes. The total amount of ozone usually stays constant because its formation and destruction occur at about the same rate. Human activity has recently changed that natural balance. Certain manufactured substances (such as chlorofluorocarbons and hydrochlorofluorocarbons ) can destroy stratospheric ozone much faster than it is formed. Ozone is a natural sunblock Go outside on a fine day and feel the sun warm your face. What happens when a cloud passes over? You’ll notice that the cloud takes away some of the heat and light coming from the sun. In much the same way that a cloud blocks the heat on a hot day, the ozone layer in the stratosphere blocks out the sun’s deadly ultraviolet rays. It acts as our planet’s natural sunblock.
