Nitrates in the atmosphere reduce air quality and play an important role in climate change. An international team led by ...

Droughts are becoming more severe and widespread across the globe. But it's not just changing rainfall patterns that are to ...

A new study details processes that keep pollutants aloft despite a drop in emissions.

Complementary investigations in other leading journals have also made significant contributions to the quantification of atmospheric chemical processes. One recent study combined extensive ground ...

Higher temperatures caused by climate change are driving complex processes that make droughts bigger and more severe, new ...

Highly sensitive detection methods allow ever deeper insights into complex chemical processes in the atmosphere: Researchers ...

The formation of ice in the atmosphere is a fundamental process that underpins both cloud dynamics and precipitation. Ice nucleation, the initial step in ice formation, occurs when supercooled ...

the ALTAiR group uses the high-quality data thus obtained to further advance our understanding of atmospheric processes and chemical transformations. Scientific flights above the Front Range will help ...

Temperature inversions are quite common in the lower troposphere and are created by several different atmospheric processes. [Credit: Shutterstock] Question: As a skier in Virginia and West ...

Under typical atmospheric conditions, this water-based reaction pathway is just as important as the self-decomposition process that has been thought to dominate. This finding suggests that the ...

But the opulent glows that appear in the sky – as atmospheric gasses are struck by energetic solar particles – aren't limited to the most well-known manifestation.
