It is found in three layers of the atmosphere: the troposphere, the stratosphere, and the mesosphere.<\/p>\n<p>The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere, extending from the Earth&#8217;s surface to about 12 kilometers (7.5 miles). It is where most of the Earth&#8217;s weather occurs. Tropospheric ozone is created when ultraviolet radiation from the sun splits oxygen molecules into two oxygen atoms. These oxygen atoms then combine with oxygen molecules in the air to form ozone.<\/p>\n<p>The stratosphere is the second layer of the atmosphere, extending from about 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) to about 50 kilometers (31 miles). It is where the ozone layer is located. The ozone layer is a region of the stratosphere that contains high concentrations <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> of ozone.

It is the coldest layer of the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>Increased surface UV leads to increased tropospheric ozone. This is because the increased UV radiation splits more oxygen <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a
