Candidate in the Department of Chemistry at Colorado State University Earths atmosphere is one of our greatest shared resources and provides many ingredients required for life. We breathe oxygen from the atmosphere, weather systems distribute water, and the ozone in the upper atmosphere protects us from harmful radiation.

OK, on to methane in the environment: The headline here – whether you’re talking about atmospheric concentrations, climate impacts, or emissions – is that there is a lot less methane than CO 2 , but it’s a more potent climate heater and it’s increasing faster. Atmospheric concentrations. Climate impact. W/m 2 from elevated CO 2.

Satellites, for example, are used in meteorology to track weather systems and to monitor atmospheric fronts to predict what the weather will do next. Known as ENSO, they are opposite effects of the same process and are defined as an oscillation (a variation in magnitude) between the temperature of the atmosphere and the ocean.

Today, it overlaps with many other sciences and has had a profound impact on the environmental sciences just as chemistry has. It also underpins the physical sciences by providing the theoretical framework on which it may base its own assumptions and basic theoretical models. How Physics Applies to Environmental Science.
