Ozone is a isotope of Oxygen, formed by lightning (at least the type forming the ozone layer)

The ozone layer is thinnest at the south pole. Different things destroy the ozone layer by combining with this form of oxygen to stabilize their own unstable molecules, like flourohydrocarbons

Ozone level expands and contracts (thins & thickens) depening on the season

It is a long story . Follow this the atoms in the solar wind are all ionized and as they approach the earth The beta particles are attracted to the north pole and make it negative. The alfa particles are attracted to the south pole making it positive . This provides the ionizing voltage and current that keeps the ozone layer stable and that is O3 not NO2.. As the angle to the sun gets at the right point every year it blows a hole in the ozone layer,and is harmful to no one.There is another name for the ozone layer and it is the Van Allen Belt. It is very high and the dreaded CO2 cannot get there or the CFC . Now Methane is light enough that it might be there but there is no evidence to support it. NO2 is a fertilizer and in created by the high temperatures from lightning or car motors and it is not Ozone.

no you got it The ozone found in the stratosphere it's created by an interaction between oxygen molecules (composed of two oxygen atoms) and ultraviolet light. When ultraviolet light hits these oxygen molecules, the reaction causes the molecules to break apart into single atoms of oxygen (UV light + O2 --> O + O). These single atoms of oxygen are very reactive, and a single atom combines with a molecule of oxygen to form ozone (O3), which is composed of three atoms of oxygen (2O + 2O2 --> 2O3).

This site can tell you a lot about the Ozone Hole over Antarctica and the thinning over the Arctic http://www.theozonehole.com/ozoneholehistory.htm
