Japanese researchers developed a model to simulate early Earth's atmosphere, revealing how UV radiation and hydrocarbons ...

Understanding what triggers severe storms is not just a question for scientists but a matter of safety and preparedness for ...

As energy from the sun reaches Earth, some solar radiation is absorbed by the atmosphere, leading to chemical reactions like ...

Most countries have a series of government-run stations set up to monitor atmospheric radiation, as a general part of environmental protection. Day to day, the data may not be particularly ...

Parts of the northern U.S. may be able to see the northern lights on Friday night as solar radiation will likely cause some ...

Robin Hogan is responsible for the representation of solar and infrared radiation in the model used for ECMWF’s weather ...

All atmospheric aerosols scatter incoming solar radiation, and a few aerosol types can also absorb solar radiation. BC is the most important of the latter, but mineral dust and some OC components ...

A supposedly stable belt of radiation 7000 km above the Earth’s surface may in fact be producing damaging bursts of ...

"Microplastics can affect precipitation patterns, weather forecasting, climate modeling, and even aircraft safety".

However, understanding the role of UV radiation is difficult. First, this type of atmosphere is unstable and likely underwent rapid changes due to atmospheric chemical reactions. Second ...
