Troy, N.Y. – Geochemists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute are challenging commonly held ideas about how gases are expelled from the Earth. Their theory, which is described in the Sept. 20 issue of ...

In the atmosphere, gaseous sulfuric acid can form particles that influence the physical properties of clouds. Thus, the formation of sulfuric acid in the gas phase directly affects the radiative ...

Journal of Applied Meteorology (1962-1982), Vol. 8, No. 6 (December 1969), pp. 874-883 (10 pages) It is suggested that helical roll vortices in the atmosphere are responsible for the formation of the ...

Sulfur molecules come in many forms called allotropes, from S2 up to S8. The subscript indicates the number of S atoms in the allotrope. We are proposing here a new pathway to S2 formation. With S2 ...

Nga Lee “Sally” Ng leads a new study investigating the formation and properties of secondary organic aerosol from the nitrate radical oxidation of two common monoterpenes, compounds found in many ...
