William Sayler set out to correct errors flt experts" pertaining to the importance of ozone in the atmosphere. Mr. Sayler's letter contains several errors and betrays a basic misunderst anding of photochemical equilibria. Contrary to Mr. Sayler's opinion. ozone is a strong absorber of ultraviolet radiation. Oxygen does indeed absorb large amounts of ultraviolet radiation. and in the upper stratosphere. this absorption results in the formation of ozone. Stratospheric ozone does constitute a protective blanket.serving to filter out radiation known to be able to cause skin cancer. Mr. Concerning "ready supply of - he is. in Sayler's part correct since ozone is produced in the atmosphere. What he fails to realize is that the average concentration of ozone present is a delicate balance between fixed quantities, such as the amount of solar radiation absorbed. and more variable parameters. such as the amount of extraneous material present. It can readily be shown. for example. that the addition of extra amounts of nitrogen oxides can shift this balance resulting in a net reduction of the concentration of ozone, This reduction would allow more of the potentially harmful solar radiation to reach the earths surface. In fact. a simpie Calculation such as this. performed by Dr. H. Johnston. University of California. Berkeley. was responsible in large part for the delay in the United States SST program. The effect of pollutants on the ozone layer is a complicated prohlem, and it is at best superficial to simply label some of this country's most brilliant scientists as alarmists. The potential danger is serious enough that the problem must not be dismissed out of hand. GEORGE R.
