in the upper troposphere—the layer of the atmosphere just below the stratosphere, where most aircraft cruise—ozone contributes to warming the planet as a potent greenhouse gas. There are signs ...

12, 2024 — Ozone gas is reducing the growth of tropical ... Scientists Find a Human 'Fingerprint' in the Upper Troposphere's Increasing Ozone Aug. 2, 2024 — Scientists confirmed that much ...

Ground level ozone (O3) also tropospheric ozone, is a trace gas of the troposphere, with an average concentration of 20–30 parts per billion by volume (ppbv), with close to 100 ppbv in polluted areas.

Below this is the troposphere ... in the tropical lower stratosphere. The ozone concentration data were obtained through the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment II (SAGE II) satellite ...

In this bizarre phenomenon called the “tropopause fold”, ozone from the stratosphere is brought down to the ground. The stratosphere typically sits above the troposphere, and they touch ...
