Sentences with phrase «ozone in the stratosphere due»

Some experts predicted that the depletion of ozone in the stratosphere due to the exhausts from the SST would produce about 10,000 additional cases of skin cancer in the world.

Not exact matches

To what extent climate change due to the emission of greenhouse gases may favor the formation of an «ozone hole» in the Arctic stratosphere is an important topic of the POLSTRACC campaign.

In our stratosphere, upper level warming is due to ozone absorption of solar radiation.

In the absence of ozone, there would be no well - defined stratosphere, but what we now call the stratosphere would also warm due to its increased opacity, and an increased upward flux from below in the CO2 wavelengthIn the absence of ozone, there would be no well - defined stratosphere, but what we now call the stratosphere would also warm due to its increased opacity, and an increased upward flux from below in the CO2 wavelengthin the CO2 wavelengths.

On the other hand both records have shown dramatic cooling in the stratosphere, where cooling is indeed expected due to increasing greenhouse gases and decreasing ozone (which heats the stratosphere due to its absorption of solar ultraviolet radiation).

The chemical feedbacks due to photolytic reactions in both the stratosphere and troposphere involving ozone, NOx, and water vapour, can have significant impacts.

This is due to the fact that the atmosphere warms with height in the stratosphere [because of the ozone layer].

Due to the important role of ozone in driving temperature changes in the stratosphere as well as radiative forcing of surface climate, several different groups have provided databases characterizing the time - varying concentrations of this key gas that can be used to force global climate change simulations (particularly for those models that do not calculate ozone from photochemical principles).

Again (don't tell Santer) it's the Sun stupid: changes in UV light has a direct influence on the stratosphere due to more Ozone and this results in greater warming of the upper stratosphere and swirling, wind - driving, convective atmospheric vortices that are known as weather.

It is due to the proliferation of ozone in the winter stratosphere that the air in the stratosphere is warmer in winter than it is in summer.

The various kinds of evidence examined by the panel suggest that the troposphere actually may have warmed much less rapidly than the surface from 1979 into the late 1990s, due both to natural causes (e.g., the sequence of volcanic eruptions that occurred within this particular 20 - year period) and human activities (e.g., the cooling of the upper part of the troposphere resulting from ozone depletion in the stratosphere).

The wind patterns may have changed due to a combination of the current Pacific Decadal Oscillation which has now started changing, and the ozone hole allowing more sunlight to reach the surface rather than being absorbed in the stratosphere; the extra energy from this may have accelerated the winds.

Hypothetically (and the relationship is already well established statistically) the gamut of Mid Winter Warmings, Sudden Stratospheric Warmings and Final Warmings in the Arctic stratosphere depend upon the supply of ozone rich air from mid latitudes being thrust into the Arctic stratosphere where ozone is normally in a somewhat depleted state due to erosive nitrogen compounds descending from the mesosphere, in turn related to Particle Precipitation Events that are strongly related to geomagnetic influences and the solar wind.

This year, more ozone has been lost over the Arctic due to unusually cold temperatures in the stratosphere, and these have been fed by a stronger circulation pattern called the polar vortex throughout the winter, according to Ross Salawitch, a professor at the University of Maryland, and one of Rex's collaborators.

The stratosphere has cooled because of ozone loss due to moisture arising in tropical convection overshoot.

The result was a shock: at least 60 % of ozone destruction at the poles seems to be due to an unknown mechanism, Rex told a meeting of stratosphere researchers in Bremen, Germany, last week....

Chemically, there will be an increase in ozone depletion (due to increases in heterogenous surface chemistry in the stratosphere), increases in acid rain, possibly an increase in high cirrus cloud cover due to indirect effects of the sulphates on cloud lifetime.
