A less dramatic but still significant depletion of. ozone levels was recorded around the globe. With less. ozone in the atmosphere, more ultraviolet (UV) radia-. tion strikes Earth, causing more skin cancer, eye dam-. age, and possible harm to crops.
There are 1.0E-6 meter in a micrometer. 1 Micrometer is equal to 1.0E-6 Meter. 1 um = 1.0E-6 m. A micrometer, or micron, is a unit of length sometimes used in SI as a 1Ã10â6 of a meter. This is a quite specific measurement unit used in science (i.e. for measuring various types of wavelength, etc.) or in industrial technology.
Smaller units are the realm of the scientist and engineer. One micrometer (symbolized Âµm or Âµ), also called a micron, is equal to 0.0001 (10-4) cm. One nanometer (nm) is equal to 10-7 cm. One AngstrÃ¶m unit (symbolized Ã¤) is equal to 10-8 cm, or 0.1 nm.
