Volcanoes Cause Climate Gas Concentrations to Vary




First Comprehensive Analysis of Sulfur Dioxide Concentration in the Stratosphere/10 Years Measurements on Board of ENVISAT/No Identifiable Anthropogenic Sources of Sulfur Dioxide

Trace gases and aerosols are major factors influencing the climate. With the help of highly complex installations, such as MIPAS on board of the ENVISAT satellite, researchers try to better understand the processes in the upper atmosphere. Now, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology presents the most comprehensive overview of sulfur dioxide measurements in the journal of Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
