Yes sure why not if you want it to be. Hydrogen (H2) is similar to carbon monoxide in that it acts as an indirect greenhouse gas through its effect on hydroxyl (OH) radicals. By reducing the levels of OH in the atmosphere, hydrogen increases the lifetime of some direct greenhouse gases, such as methane. Much hydrogen is itself produced in the atmopshere by the oxidation of methane, with total global emisssions estimated to be about 70 million tonnes each year. As well as removal in the atmopshere by its reaction with OH, significant amounts of hydrogen are also taken up by soil microorganisms.
Yes. Explosive volcanic eruptions release sulfur dioxide into the atmopshere. This gas forms tiny droplets of sulfuric acid in the upper atmosphere, which reflect some of the sun's warming rays back into space.
Pluto is the planet that scientist are saying is not a planet. Scientists are not saying any particular planet is not a planet. Simply that Pluto has been reclassified as a dwarf planet.
No, Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system.
Planet X was a hypothetical planet which was searched for after the discovery of planet Neptune. `Planet-X` does not exist.
It (gravity) keeps it (atmosphere) close to Earth.
Mercury has only a trace atmopshere of hydrogen that is almost null.
The factors that determine whether a planet has an atmosphere or not are mass and temperature. Not exactly... There are two main factors that determine whether a planet can develop and keep an atmopshere and they are the escape velocity of the planet (how fast the object has to go to escape the gravitational pull) and the speed of the molecules in the atmosphere. For example the escape velocity for earth is about 11km/s (25,ooomph) Other factors include proximity to a larger body that can will steal the atmosphere away, and distance to the sun which produces solar wind that can literally blow the atmosphere away.
According to NASA, space begins about 100 km above the surface of the earth, where the atmopshere is considered to be null.
The troposhere starts on the Earth and continues up in the atmopshere to 17 km (10.6 miles) high.
The updraft of a tornado may help somewhat in stabilizing the atmopshere, but the parent thunderstorm normally would do that anyway.
If you had an enclosed airtight habitat with atmosphere and life support it is technically possible. Dwarf planets are too small to have an atmopshere of their own.
The stratopause is not a region of the atmopshere. it is the border between the stratosphere below anjd the mesosphere above. It is located 31 to 34 miles above the surface.
The Aurora lights are caused by particles thrown out by the sun hitting the earth atmopshere, so they look different because they hit the atmosphere at different points.
He creates a dark and dank atmopshere surrounded by death (the churchyard) and danger (the prison ship and escaped prisoners) that oppresses and terrifies the young Pip.
Ultraviolet, visible light, and some radio waves are able to penetrate the Earth's atmosphere. However, X-rays and gamma rays are largely absorbed and blocked by the atmosphere.
Through using energy, factories and power plants produce heat and waste. Energy is a limited and finite resource, for the most part. Using energy in the form of fuel (like in cars and other vehicles) creates pollution and gaseous emmissions. These emmissions go into the atmopshere, deplete the ozone layer, pollute the air, and cause global warming. With more energy conservation, less of these harmful pollutants will be produced or put into the atmopshere. This will at least slow down the process of global warming.
