The authors use a two - dimensional atmospheric model to simulate the nitrate and ozone changes associated with the A.D. 1908 Tunguska event where a bolide airburst occurred over Siberia, Russia.

Not exact matches

Long - term risks can arise from purely social causes (e.g., those associated with political or economic institutions, violence, and technology), but often arise from the interaction of humans with the Earth system (e.g., climate change; ozone depletion; resource depletion; pandemics; flood and seismic risk in areas subject to increasing development).

Now, scientists have discovered that manmade GHGs and associated climate change are likely to have a severe adverse impact on human health as bad as — if not worse than — the hole in the ozone layer.

The higher temperatures associated with climate change near the surface are resulting in increased evaporation, leading to more water vapor in the stratosphere which chemically reacting with the ozone — resulting in ozone depletion.

There is no doubt that it is upper troposphere cloud that responds to change in local temperature in turn related to periodic change in ozone concentration that is in turn associated with vortex activity at the poles.

I could go through a dozen... examples: the skill associated with solar cycles, changing the ozone in the stratosphere; the skill associated with orbital changes over 6,000 years.

It was determined that a major cause of changes in the size and extent of the Antarctic ozone hole are the intense wind patterns and circulations associated with the extensive Antarctic high - pressure zone and the surrounding wind pattern known as the Circumpolar Vortex.

The evolution of the latter, intimately associated with the evolution of the ozone content of the air between 400 hPa and 50 hPa, is associated with what is described as the Antarctic Oscillation, that I argue is the most influential mode of natural climate change globally.

This suggests that the well - known changes in temperature lapse rates associated with the tropopause / stratosphere regions are related to the phase change, and not «ozone heating», which had been the previous explanation.

Corollary Market - failures associated to climate - change — along with market - failures associated to tobacco - smoke, ozone - depletion, persistent organic pesticides, healthcare systems, and commons - resources in general — ensure that

Rights - of - way on public lands result in landscape and habitat fragmentation, while coal combustion produces a number of gaseous byproducts, including CO2, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and methane — which exacerbate climate change and are associated with ground - level ozone (smog), air pollution, and acid rain.

The analysis, reported in the November issue of Energy Policy, focused on how three environmental changes (increases in temperature, carbon dioxide and ozone) associated with human activity will affect crops, pastures and forests.
