I: Retrieval of Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide from High-Resolution Spectra. II: Interannual Variability of the Stratospheric Quasi-Biennual Oscillation [PDF]

, 2011
This thesis is devoted to an understanding of climate changes in the troposphere and the stratosphere from different aspects. In the troposphere, projecting future climate depends on our understanding of the exchange of CO₂ between the atmosphere, oceans,

Family Work Among the Astors

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Within classical sociological accounts of capitalism, families are curious remnants of the past. Contemporary elite sociology dismisses the family in a different way: by primarily focusing on individual men. When the family does appear within elite studies, scholars frequently follow a stratification framework, which focuses on the ...

Quantification of transport across the boundary of the lower stratospheric vortex during Arctic winter 2002/2003 [PDF]

, 2007
Strong perturbations of the Arctic stratosphere during the winter 2002/2003 by planetary waves led to enhanced stretching and folding of the vortex. On two occasions the vortex in the lower stratosphere split into two secondary vortices that re-merged ...

Do Global Reporting Initiative Reports Capture Planetary Boundaries‐related Information? An Empirical Investigation

Abacus, EarlyView.
The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) has become a widely adopted sustainability reporting framework. This study aims to examine whether GRI reports can, should, and do address planetary boundaries. To do so, the study develops a framework and method to assess the extent to which planetary boundaries‐related information is captured in firms’ GRI ...

Stratospheric Ozone and Health [PDF]

International Journal of Epidemiology, 1994
Stratospheric ozone is being depleted and ambient ultraviolet (UV) irradiance is probably increasing. While remedial steps have been taken through the Montreal protocols, at best it will take some 90 years for stratospheric ozone concentrations to return to the levels existing in the 1970s.The evidence that these changes may have harmful effects on ...

Dehydration potential of ultrathin clouds at the tropical tropopause. [PDF]

, 2003
We report on the first simultaneous in situ and remote measurements of subvisible cirrus in the uppermost tropical troposphere. The observed cirrus, called UTTCs (ultrathin tropical tropopause clouds), are the geometrically (200–300 m) and optically (τ ≈

Planned cesarean section or attempted vaginal delivery: Which is more environmentally friendly? An observational life cycle assessment study in France

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
In this life cycle assessment study conducted in a French hospital, attempted vaginal delivery showed substantially lower environmental impacts than planned cesarean section, including reduced greenhouse gas emissions, resource use, and water consumption, highlighting its greater environmental sustainability in childbirth care.

Insights into plant‐part‐specific N2O production in roots and shoots of chicory (Cichorium intybus) using stable isotope labelling

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Conceptual scheme of the nitrous oxide (N2O) production, consumption, and transport processes across the soil–plant–atmosphere continuum. Summary Nitrous oxide (N2O) contributes substantially to climate change and stratospheric ozone degradation, yet large uncertainties in its global budget point to overlooked sources.

Stratospheric Aircraft: Impact on the Stratosphere?

, 1992
The steady-state distribution of natural stratospheric ozone is primarily maintained through production by ultraviolet photolysis of molecular oxygen, destruction by a catalytic cycle involving nitrogen oxides (NO{sub x}), and relocation by air motions within the stratosphere.
