Ozone from the stratosphere - 10 miles above ground, plunged to the surface producing air quality alerts across southern Colorado on Monday. This is rare. And, it came on top of the intense and ...

Since the discovery of the Antarctic ozone hole in the 1980s, numerous studies have pointed out that this depletion of ozone in the Antarctic has important impacts on global climate change, and that ...

Humankind will soon lose a great deal of vigilance over the ozone layer, which shields life on Earth from harmful solar radiation. The impending loss of NASA’s Aura and the Canadian Space Agency’s ...

Roughly twenty miles above Earth's surface, in a largely invisible layer of the atmosphere called the stratosphere, some of the most dramatic temperature changes on our planet unfold. Major sudden ...

NASA and NOAA scientists ranked the 2025 Antarctic ozone hole as the fifth smallest since 1992, a finding that reflects decades of global chemical regulation but does not mean the threat has passed.

Spacecraft burning up in the atmosphere are leaving behind metal particles. Scientists are racing to understand if that affects the climate. One risk is that these particles may spark rainbow-colored ...

A new NASA climate simulation suggests that extremely large volcanic eruptions called “flood basalt eruptions” might significantly warm Earth’s climate and devastate the ozone layer that shields life ...
