Thanks to these studies, we now know the five layers of the atmosphere are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere (see graphic). Together, these layers protect us ...

So you're hitting the troposphere and the stratosphere, this is where planes fly. You're that high. Humans aren't meant to survive there. So when you are climbing there, even if you are on oxygen ...

Imminent loss of NASA's Aura and Canada's SCISAT will severely diminish scientists’ ability to monitor ozone-depleting substances in the stratosphere.

Sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) is a fascinating yet perplexing weather phenomenon that has meteorologists scratching ...

The stratosphere is the atmospheric layer extending from 10 km to about 50 km in altitude above the Earth's surface. Below this is the troposphere, which is in contact with the oceans and ...

This circulation shapes the global stratospheric ozone distribution as well as climatic features such as the height and temperature of the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere ...

The balloons also reach the lower part of the stratosphere, the layer above the troposphere. The amount of data generated by these measurements is so high that it makes modern computational ...

Petter Weibring operates CAMS, a sensitive DFG spectrometer, during a flight on a NCAR/NSF Gulfstream-V aircraft to study formaldehyde transported from low altitudes to the upper troposphere and lower ...
