Consider the following statements about the Earth's atmosphere and ozone layer:
1. The Montreal Protocol, enacted in 1987, targeted the reduction of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and halons, which are primary contributors to ozone depletion. It mandated a complete phase-out of these substances by 2000.
2. The Antarctic ozone hole is primarily attributed to the reaction of ozone with nitrogen oxides (NOx) released from volcanic eruptions, rather than halogenated compounds.
3. The Dobson Unit (DU) is a measurement used to express the total column amount of ozone in the atmosphere. One Dobson Unit represents a thickness of 0.01 millimeters of ozone at standard temperature and pressure.
4. The presence of ozone in the stratosphere plays a crucial role in absorbing ultraviolet (UV) radiation, thus protecting the Earthβs surface from harmful UV-B rays.
