Soaring Greenhouse Gas Emissions Are Shrinking the Stratosphere, Study Shows

Soaring Greenhouse Gas Emissions Are Shrinking the Stratosphere, Study Shows Climate-altering emissions have shrunk the stratosphere which extends from roughly 15 kilometers to 50 kilometers above the earth’s surface by 400 meters since the 1980s. NASA/Goddard The rapid growth of CO2 emissions in recent decades is heating and expanding the lower atmosphere, leading to its intrusion into the stratosphere, according to a new study. Reporting in the journal Environmental Research Letters, an international team of scientists said that climate-altering emissions have shrunk the stratosphere which extends from roughly 15 kilometers to 50 kilometers above the earth’s surface by 400 meters since the 1980s. And without major cuts in emissions, the scientists said, the stratosphere could shrink by another kilometer by 2020. A shrinking stratosphere could affect satellite operations, GPS systems, and radio communications, the Guardian reported.

Skeptical Science New Research for Week #19, 2021

Skeptical Science New Research for Week #19, 2021 Putting a price tag on upcoming atmospheric rivers The Clausius-Clapeyron equation isn t complicated once somebody has thought of the concept and mathematically tamed it. However,  the deceptively meek and harmless looking caged expression of the idea in combination with an entire planet s atmosphere heating up in the presence of an ample water supply unpacks as a zoo of forbidding complications for us humans and our built environment. Capturing and quantitatively describing details of how our climate train wreck is going to unfold is in some ways even more difficult than establishing root cause principles such as the Clausius-Clapeyron.equation. A lot of previous work in disparate disciplines has first to be assembled and then extended into an self-consistent, coherent whole in order to produce useful results, with this work requiring objectively remarkable aggregations of specialist insight working in deep cooperation.

Climate emissions shrinking the stratosphere, scientists reveal

The shrinking stratosphere is a stark signal of the climate emergency and the planetary-scale influence that humanity now exerts, according to Juan Añel, at the University of Vigo, Ourense in Spain and part of the research team. “It is shocking,” he said. “This proves we are messing with the atmosphere up to 60 kilometres.” Scientists already knew the troposphere was growing in height as carbon emissions rose and had hypothesised that the stratosphere was shrinking. But the new study is the first to demonstrate this and shows it has been contracting around the globe since at least the 1980s, when satellite data was first gathered.

The thickness of the atmospheric layer has contracted by 400 metres since the 1980s, the researchers found, and will thin by about another kilometre by 2080 without major cuts in emissions. The changes have the potential to affect satellite operations, the GPS navigation system and radio communications. The discovery is the latest to show the profound impact of humans on the planet. In April, scientists showed that the climate crisis had shifted the Earth’s axis as the massive melting of glaciers redistributes weight around the globe.
