Which of the two processes dominates and whether OH levels are going up or down has been hotly debated. But as we show in our ...

Scientists have shed new light on the 'self-cleaning' capacity of the atmosphere. This process of self-cleaning is essential to remove gaseous pollutants and regulate greenhouse gases such as ...

"The next step is to conduct experiments in diverse atmospheric conditions across the globe," she said. These studies could help quantify the impact of this process on regional air pollution and ...

This lower atmosphere ozone is a greenhouse gas that ... for the existence of much water vapor and in the Arctic this cleaning process appears instead to rely on reactions on frozen surfaces ...

The researchers examined which processes and atmospheric compounds ... even more had it not been for this strengthening of atmospheric cleaning capacity. "All four factors—nitrogen oxides ...

Lightning may play a much bigger part than previously thought in a fundamental process that cleans our atmosphere of pollutants, according to the results of a new study. New research published ...

Although cautioning that research and development is needed before the systems could be deployed, the team identified several potentially viable paths to using sewage as a carbon sink — that is, sewer ...

Penguin poop may be playing a key role in keeping climate change in check over Antarctica, new research published May 22 ...

Oxygen is removed from the atmosphere through decomposition processes and respiration in living organisms. Phosphorus is a component of biological molecules such as RNA, DNA, phospholipids ...
