This infographic shows the multiple layers of our atmosphere, extending from the ground up into space, and how the new dataset compares in coverage to those currently available.

Scientists discover a radioactive spike of beryllium-10 (10Be) in Pacific Ocean sediments, revealing ancient climatic and ...

Earth's atmosphere protects the planet in more ways than one. This thin band of air is unique to Earth, and we wouldn't exist without it.

We have not always had an ozone layer. Before the emergence of life, ozone was essentially non-existent in our atmosphere. And the Earth spent billions of years with only a minimal ozone layer.

The rapid rise in global rocket launches could slow the recovery of the vital ozone layer, says Sandro Vattioni. The problem ...

The progress comes after every nation in the world agreed to stop producing chemicals that thin the layer of ozone in Earth’s atmosphere that shields the planet from harmful radiation ...

The ozone layer is a part of Earth’s atmosphere that captures some of the Sun’s ultraviolet (UV) light emissions. When the ozone layer is compromised, its ability to absorb radiation weakens ...

(WRBL) — The Earth has a fascinating atmosphere that contains several unique layers. The Troposphere is the layer that we live in, it starts at the surface but the height often varies to about 9 ...

Scientists have divided our atmosphere into 5 major layers – the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere.

When talking about the atmosphere, all weather occurs in the troposphere, the layer closest to the Earth.
