Ozone damage to plants
Article Abstract:
Increased amounts of ground-level ozone pollution may pose a risk to many different plants. Ozone is absorbed through the leaves of the plant and can inhibit growth, lower crop yields, and sometimes result in the death of the plant. Ozone pollution occurs when nitrous oxides and hydrocarbons in the atmosphere react with ultraviolet light.
