Climate Program Office funds research to understand methane’s significance in the atmosphere

The Climate Program Office (CPO) is announcing eight new three-year projects in Fiscal Year 2023 (FY23) that aim to increase our understanding of methane’s significance in the atmosphere by exploring global, regional and local concentration and trends, modeling methane budgets and frameworks for measurement and verification of emissions. The competitively selected projects total $5.3 million […]

Solid aerosols in Arctic atmosphere could impact cloud formation and climate

New research demonstrates the presence of solid organic-coated ammonium sulfate particles in the Arctic boundary layer. As the Arctic loses ice, researchers expect to see more of these unique particles formed from oceanic emissions combined with ammonia from birds, that can change how clouds form and climate.

Reaction of ⍺-pinene with nitrate is a major contributor in secondary organic aerosol formation

New research reveals the contribution of ⍺-pinene + NO3 in the secondary aerosol budget, and likely constitutes a major removal pathway of reactive nitrogen from the lower troposphere.
