Ozone is a chemical compound consisting of three Oxygen atoms (O 3). The Oxygen we breathe is made of two atoms (O 2). Ozone is primarily found in the Ozone Layer in the stratosphere, however, it can ...
NOx, shorthand for the sum of NO2 + NO, is necessary for the formation of ozone (O3). Even when volatile organic compounds (VOC) are not present, ozone is formed through a series of sunlight-driven ...
The study of ozone dynamics and isotope effects encompasses the intricate chemical pathways involved in ozone formation, destruction and its isotopic composition. Research in this field has elucidated ...
David Fahey of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Aeronomy Laboratory in Boulder, Colo., explains. The severe depletion of stratospheric ozone during the winter in Antarctica ...
Standard methods of predicting air pollution don’t take atmospheric chlorine into account, but the chemical could be responsible for 10 percent or more of daily ozone production in local air, research ...
Wildfires release vast amounts of visible pollutants into the atmosphere that darken skies and push people indoors to avoid unhealthy air. But a near-invisible threat to public health associated with ...
(KXAN) — As technology improves, our ability to observe the world improves with each new satellite that blasts off to orbit. Meteorologist Nick Bannin spoke with Larry Flynn, a research scientist with ...
