Not exact matches

Filling in all these details will make it possible to refine the accuracy of atmospheric models and help to assess such things as strategies to mitigate specific air pollution issues, from ozone to particulate matter, or to assess the sources and removal mechanisms of atmospheric components that affect Earth's climate.

This is what's known about the dynamics of the stratosphere: Increasing clouds of low - lying ozone, made from the reaction between sunlight and pollution, are showing up in the western U.S. that have little or no industrial activity.

However, periods of extreme heat and drought can trap pollution in the region, making bad ozone days worse.

In Zatko's case, she says the support did produce a finding that could benefit society at large: She concluded that chemical reactions in snow were making only a minimal contribution to the region's ozone pollution, compared with emissions coming from natural gas drilling.

The study, conducted by the researcher from the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute, further revealed that the Chinese ozone pollution has significantly impacted the pollution management within the U.S., resulting in an offset of 43 percent of the total effort being made.

The region is 10th for annual particle pollution and 53rd for 24 - hour particle pollution, but didn't make the top 25 list for ozone.

Similar negative effects occur with worsening air pollution — higher levels of ground - level ozone smog and other pollutants that increase with warmer temperatures have been directly linked with increased rates of respiratory and cardiovascular disease — food production and safety — warmer temperatures and varying rainfall patterns mess up staple crop yields and aid the migration and breeding of pests that can devastate crops — flooding — as rising sea levels make coastal areas and densely - populated river deltas more susceptible to storm surges and flooding that result from severe weather — and wildfires, which can be ancillary to increased heat waves and are also responsible for poor air quality (not to mention burning people's homes and crops).

Power plant emissions that cause acid rain, water pollution and destruction of the ozone layer may actually be made worse by capturing the CO2 and pumping it deep underground, a new study reported online and in an upcoming International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control suggests.

Though he warned that carbon dioxide emissions must be stabilized over the next few decades, he also suggested that significant progress could be made by reducing the emissions of other greenhouse gases, particularly methane and ozone — and that we must pay our Faustian debt involving air pollution.
