While the total amount of ozone in the troposphere is small compared with stratospheric ozone, it is important in considering the energy balance of the atmosphere. At the lower levels of the atmosphere, ozone is at higher pressures and its absorption of outgoing infrared radiation is very much more effective than higher-level ozone. 5, record 1, English, - stratospheric%20ozone
