George Bush may not understand the science of climate change. But the corporate houses behind him will soon understand the global benefits of going green. Only this perhaps will trigger a reversal in the White House s stance
the ozone layer over Antarctica has depleted severely, according to the World Meteorological Organisation ( wmo ), a un agency. "The latest satellite observations in the sunlight
Measurements and models show that enhanced aerosol concentrations can augment cloud albedo not only by increasing total droplet cross-sectional area, but also by reducing precipitation and thereby increasing cloud water content and cloud coverage. Aerosol pollution is expected to exert a net cooling influence on the global climate through these conventional mechanisms. Here, we demonstrate an opposite mechanism through which aerosols can reduce
Turbulence in the atmosphere is a major problem with Earth-based telescopes. Most modern telescopes take care of this by using adaptive optics, a corrective process in which parts of the telescope
The upper layers of the atmosphere are getting cooler, and ironically, the greenhouse effect is being blamed. The Mesosphere, the atmospheric layer between 50 to 90 km of the atmosphere, has been
