IB ESS 6.4.4 UV radiation impacts
Practise linking low stratospheric ozone to human, plant and ecosystem impacts, using biological effects and simple ozone data.
How this is tested
- outline human impacts of UV exposure such as sunburn, cataracts and skin cancer
- explain plant or phytoplankton damage through reduced photosynthesis and growth
- calculate or compare ozone concentrations from a graph when data are provided
