RafaThe ozone layer is concentrated in the stratosphere because this is where the majority of ozone molecules are formed through the interaction of oxygen and ultraviolet radiation from the sun. The stratosphere's composition and conditions are optimal for the accumulation and retention of ozone molecules, creating a distinct layer that helps shield Earth from harmful ultraviolet rays.

What percentage is ozone in the atmosphere?
In the ozone layer, ozone concentration is ~10 ppm. Ozone concentrations drop very fast from there. Figure 2ppm or less overall (0.0002%)
Is cumulonimbus clouds located in the ozone layer?
No, cumulonimbus clouds are located in the troposphere, the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. The ozone layer is found in the stratosphere, which is higher up in the atmosphere.
Why ozone layer formed only in stratosphere but not in other layer of atmosphere?
