How marine bacteria influence cloud formation – Chemical & Engineering News
Ocean-in-a-bottle experiments described at the ACS fall virtual meeting illuminate the chemical interplay between marine microbes, pollution, and climate
Since the mid-1980s, environmental scientists have debated how microscopic marine life might influence the climate and the weather. Researchers suspected that the volatile organic compounds produced by these species could react to form cloud-seeding aerosols. But this hypothesis has been extremely challenging to test in the field.
These gases have a profound impact, but theyre gone in less than a half hour, says Kimberly Prather, an atmospheric chemist at the Scripps Insitution of Oceanography …
