Scientists have shown that human activity is having an impact on the height of the tropopause - the boundary between the troposphere (the lowest layer of the atmosphere) and the stratosphere. The ...

LIVERMORE, Calif. — Researchers at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have discovered another fingerprint of human effects on global climate. Recent research has shown that increases in the ...

An international team of researchers has found evidence that the troposphere has been getting thicker, pushing the tropopause higher at a continuous rate over the past 40 years. In their paper ...

The tropopause has risen by an average of 650 feet globally in the last 22 years because of global warming and ozone depletion, according to a study published in the latest issue of the Journal of ...

A new study has revealed yet another way that human-induced climate change is affecting the planet. Decades of weather balloon and satellite data has shown that the Earth’s troposphere is expanding, ...

Scientists from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have determined that human-induced changes in ozone and well-mixed greenhouse gases are the primary drivers of recent changes in the height ...

The flooding season had just ended in China. Persistent strong precipitation events in many regions of China resulted in severe flooding disasters in the just passed summer of 2020. It is of great ...

Table 1 Parameters and computed variables for simple models of atmospheric structure of Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Titan, Uranus and Neptune. The tropopause temperature minimum occurs in the radiative ...

The tropopause – a boundary within the atmosphere – is increasing in altitude due to climate change. The lowest layer of the atmosphere where we live and breathe is called the troposphere, and it is ...

Have you ever noticed clouds have flat bottoms? Not all clouds, but the puffy little cumulus Toy Story-style clouds do often have them, especially when it's not too windy. During the day the sun warms ...
