Sentences with phrase «less ozone»

Because a new study shows that topping off your car battery at night generates less ozone.

Fortunately for us, much less ozone exists at these heights.

Weaker magnetic activity on the Sun means less ozone which means a weaker jet stream which means it meanders more, bringing cold air south in some places.

33 OZONE DEPLETION IN THE STRATOSPHERE Less ozone in the stratosphere allows for more harmful UV radiation to reach the earth's surface.

Bluer areas on the maps indicate less ozone; greener areas more.

In the tropopause, there is less ozone heating, but they reckon there is still enough to counteract the normal «gravitational cooling», and that's why the temperature «pauses», i.e., remains constant with height.

Using a computer model, they showed that weather conditions would have lowered the amount of ozone over Antarctica anyways, and that the big hole was a result of winds from the tropics carrying less ozone to the area than in the years before.

Less ozone above the tropopause causes less stratospheric warming, allowing the tropopause up, which pushes the climate zones towards the equator.

Increased use of natural gas for electricity generation continues to make the air we breathe cleaner for all Americans — since natural gas emits little to no sulfur dioxide, particulate matter and mercury and significantly less ozone precursors.»

Published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters on Thursday, the study uses satellite observations to demonstrate that the decline in atmospheric chlorine that resulted from the implementation of the Montreal Protocol, enacted in 1989, has led to «about 20 percent less ozone depletion during the Antarctic winter than there was in 2005 — the first year that measurements of chlorine and ozone during the Antarctic winter were made by NASA's Aura satellite.»

Figure 2: When the Sun is more active there is less ozone at the poles but more over the equator.

Charging electric vehicles at night generates less ozone than tapping into the grid during the daytime.

With weak UV radiation, less ozone is produced in the atmosphere and its detection is challenging.

«If you have less ozone, there's less absorption of the ultraviolet light and the stratosphere doesn't warm as much.»

If America would only borrow and consume less, produce less carbon, generate less ozone and garbage, we could improve both our material and spiritual well being.

As the levels of CO2 increase, plants take up less ozone, but Klingberg warns that this effect is an unknown quantity.

The stratosphere cools when ozone is destroyed because there is less ozone to absorb UV radiation.

The dependence is complicated, but the bottom line is the jet stream is weaker when there's less ozone (it has to do with latitude - dependent temperature gradients across the upper atmosphere; those gradients are strong in winter and weak in summer).

At times of minima in the eleven - year cycle, less ozone is found.

So a wetter stratosphere will have less ozone.
