Chemists Discover Ozone-Boosting Reaction: Newfound Chemistry Should Be Added To Atmospheric Models, Experts Say
July 20, 2009 — Burning of fossil fuels pumps chemicals into the air that react on surfaces such as buildings and roads to create photochemical smog-forming chlorine atoms, scientists report in a new study. The ... > full story -
Ozone, Nitrogen Change The Way Rising Carbon Dioxide Affects Earth's Water
July 9, 2009 — Through a recent modeling experiment, researchers have found that future concentrations of carbon dioxide and ozone in the atmosphere and of nitrogen in the soil are likely to have an important but ... > full story -
Ozone Hole Reduces Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Uptake In Southern Ocean
June 24, 2009 — Does ozone have an impact on the ocean’s role as a “carbon sink”? Yes, according to researchers. Using original simulations, they have demonstrated that the hole in the ozone layer ... > full story -
Beyond Carbon Dioxide: Growing Importance Of Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) In Climate Warming
June 22, 2009 — Some of the substances that are helping to avert the destruction of the ozone layer could increasingly contribute to climate warming, according to ... > full story -
Rise Of Oxygen Caused Earth's Earliest Ice Age
May 7, 2009 — Earth's earliest ice ages may have been due to the rise of oxygen in Earth's atmosphere, which consumed atmospheric greenhouse gases and chilled the earth. A team of scientists from Germany, South ... > full story -
Future Climate Change Likely To Cause More Respiratory Problems In Young Children
May 4, 2009 — More children will end up hospitalized over the next decade because of respiratory problems as a result of projected climate change, according to a new ... > full story -
Increasing Antarctic Sea Ice Extent Linked To Ozone Hole
April 21, 2009 — Increased growth in Antarctic sea ice during the past 30 years is a result of changing weather patterns caused by the ozone hole, according to new ... > full story -
Climate Change And Atmospheric Circulation Will Make For Uneven Ozone Recovery
April 10, 2009 — Earth's ozone layer should eventually recover from the unintended destruction brought on by the use of chlorofluorocarbons and similar ozone-depleting chemicals in the 20th century. But new research ... > full story -
Carbon Dioxide In Atmosphere Can Now Be Measured From Space
April 1, 2009 — New technology enables a more effective measurement of gases in the atmosphere comparatively to the currently used techniques. With this technology, it will be possible to measure gases, such as ... > full story -
