Collocations
COLLOCATIONS FROM OTHER ENTRIES
· Ozone destruction is most severe over the Antarctic due to climatic and atmospheric extremes.
COLLOCATIONS FROM THE CORPUSADJECTIVE
· During October 1987 a 13 percent stratospheric ozone reduction was measured there.· Apparently it has been recognised for over a decade that chlorine from chlorofluorocarbons may deplete the stratospheric ozone layer.· It has no effect on stratospheric ozone, and no measurable impact on climate.
· Results of the autumn and spring nitric acid measurements are shown in Fig. 2, together with total column ozone data.· Figure 2 b shows the differences in total ozone between the two simulations on 25 March.
NOUN
· Shading denotes where the ozone column is under 240DU.
· Here we present observations of a large summer minimum in ozone concentration in the unpolluted marine boundary layer of the Southern Hemisphere.· Initial ozone concentrations were taken from a mid-December climatology.
· But, like global warming, ozone depletion was based on theory.· Nevertheless, two environmental issues are clearly global in scope - ozone depletion and climate change.· The observation shocked the world into action and convinced scientists and governments alike that ozone depletion was a serious problem.· The Government hosted an international conference on ozone depletion.· Concern about ozone depletion has until now centred on its effects on humans, for instance through increased skin cancers.· Another excellent chapter deals with the greenhouse effect and ozone depletion, which Brennan admits is a personal hobbyhorse.· It covers ozone depletion, ground level ozone and global warming.
· The situation is exacerbated by unusually low levels of nitrogen oxides, which inhibit ozone destruction.· A worldwide agreement reached more than 10 years ago banned the long-lived chemicals responsible for ozone destruction.· As winds sweep these chemical pockets into middle latitudes they encounter sunlight and trigger rapid ozone destruction.
· International co-operation on protecting the ozone layer has been good.· That must have a profound effect on the ozone layer.· There will be displays on acid rain, the ozone layer and global warming.· In the most sensitive cases yields were reduced by 1 percent for every 1 percent cut in the ozone layer.· The plan also provided for measures to protect endangered species, protect the ozone layer and increase energy conservation.· From the standpoint of the ozone layer, there is a quite different way of responding to the allotment phenomenon.· This ozone layer is important to society and the environment for two reasons.· But because of their longevity they are expected to go on damaging the ozone layer for decades.
· Thanks to wind drift, the highest ozone levels are often found in country areas.· Each month during 1991 saw average ozone levels reach new highs.· Government ministers admit that ozone levels are higher than anywhere else in the world.
· Satellite observations reveal the area of major ozone loss to be about the size of the United States.· If that rate of increase continues it is estimated that methyl bromide could account for one-sixth of ozone loss by 2000.· During January, the scientists measured ozone losses of about one percent per day at some heights.· Satellite measurements show that ozone loss worldwide has amounted to 2.9 percent over the past 10 years.
· In California, pines suffer from yellowish flecking due to ozone pollution and Los Angeles is notorious for its thick ozone smogs.· A series of other steps will be triggered by particularly high levels of low-level ozone pollution.· Given the enormous and costly pollution control efforts to tackle ozone pollution to date, these variable ten-year trends are very disappointing.
VERB
· But because of their longevity they are expected to go on damaging the ozone layer for decades.· Suppose pollution beyond a certain critical level would have disastrous social consequences, for example irreversibly damaging the ozone layer above the earth.
· Contours are shown only where the chemistry has depleted ozone by more than 10%.· They help deplete the ozone layer, allowing ultraviolet rays to cause deadly skin cancers.· Apparently it has been recognised for over a decade that chlorine from chlorofluorocarbons may deplete the stratospheric ozone layer.· For a start the Protocol does not cover all the chemicals that deplete the ozone layer.
· It is estimated that every chlorine molecule has the ability to destroy 100,000 ozone molecules.· But they are thought to destroy the ozone layer, which protects the earth from the sun's rays.· The polar regions are particularly at risk because the chemical reaction that destroys ozone is helped by their weather conditions.· This would remove chlorine from the chain of reactions which destroys ozone.
· International co-operation on protecting the ozone layer has been good.· The plan also provided for measures to protect endangered species, protect the ozone layer and increase energy conservation.· This was seen as essential if such countries were to co-operate in efforts to protect the ozone layer.· This Conservative Government has taken a lead in working to protect the ozone layer.
· Electric vehicles would introduce lead releases to reduce urban ozone, a lesser problem.
· Satellite measurements show that ozone loss worldwide has amounted to 2.9 percent over the past 10 years.
