A new chemical compound in Earth's atmosphere that reacts with sulfur dioxide to form sulfuric acid, has been discovered by an international research team led by the University of Colorado Boulder and the University of Helsinki. The new compound, a type of carbonyl oxide, is formed from the reaction of ozone with alkenes, which are a family of hydrocarbons with both natural and man-made sources, said Roy "Lee" Mauldin III, a research associate in CU-Boulder's atmospheric ...Friday, 10 August 2012
New Atmospheric Compound Tied to Climate Change Discovered by CU-Boulder-Led Team
