ATom Mission interview clips — Tom Ryerson

From the creator

A flat line of data may not look interesting, but Tom Ryerson of NOAA with the #EarthExpedition ATom mission explains how it could reveal how tropospheric ozone is removed from the atmosphere. The ATom mission aboard NASA’s DC-8 flying laboratory is sampling worldwide in one of the most extensive surveys of the atmosphere to date, measuring over 200 gases as well as airborne particles. The science team is particularly interested in methane, tropospheric ozone and black carbon particles, which have strong effects on climate and which all have both human and natural origins.
