Yet, that is what some researchers at NASA did a few years ago. Atmospheric physicists Paul Newman and Luke Oman built a simulation of the Earth’s atmosphere and then proceeded to strip away our ...

When chlorine is separated from the CFCs and reacts with ozone, it rips apart the ozone molecule, leaving the layer thinner than before. In 1974, two scientists from the University of California ...

But when Haagy created synthetic smog in the lab, he unknowingly introduced another piece to the puzzle when oxidizing the VOCs: ozone. Oxidation is the process of combining a molecule with oxygen, ...

Ezra Wood leads a research group investigating many aspects of atmospheric chemistry relevant to air pollution and global warming. The overall research goals are to quantify the emissions of primary ...

Ozone pollution, typically associated with warm weather and strong sunlight, has begun to manifest alarmingly in winter. This ...

The Atmospheric Chemistry Research Group (ACRG) strives to improve our understanding of the environment via the measurement and modelling of the gases responsible for air pollution, climate change and ...

Ozone (O3) exposure may reduce the availability of oxygen in the body, resulting in arterial stiffening due to the body’s natural response to create more red blood cells and hemoglobin ...
