I just didn't see such small quantities, doing major damages. And, seeing the numbers, doesn't really change that. Still think there is a huge difference, between what happens in a lab jar, and what happens outdoors. There is a whole lot more going on around us, than what gets stuffed in those jars. Science often gets it wrong, but they'll figure it out, eventually. |

Scientist tend isolate what ever they are studying, to the fewest possible elements. They eliminate all they can, so they can narrowly focus, on the subject they wish to study. What they end up with, is over simplified, and doesn't work the same way, outside of the lab, with all the crap going on, that they set aside, and forgot about, as unimportant. |

An easy way to consider how small changes can lead to bigger ones is how compound interest is calculated. It's principal (money borrowed) * (1 + interest rate)^number of years. If interest is compounded during the year then the interest rate is divided by that number. This shows how numbers can be inflated. With molecules in the atmosphere, stratospheric ozone lasts a long time. Like interest, ozone can accrue over time or with Sudden Stratospheric Warming, it will accrue more quickly. When ozone accrues quickly, something will have needed to "inflate" what allows for ozone to occur naturally. This is where if gasses like formaldehyde are in such small numbers that they seem to be of no consequence, it's possible that formaldehyde changes readily into other gasses. With the experiment that I'm pursuing, I'm giving a reason other than photolysis. It would be a new theory in atmospheric chemistry. And since I happen to like science and don't mind learning math, why say no to opportunity? I can hearing it knocking on my door. Edited on 21-02-2021 15:41 |

You do understand, that you are looking at a very small area, and a smaller sample, of the entire planet. There is a huge variation, since no two places on earth are exactly alike, or exposed to the same conditions, that effect whatever you are studying. The glaring big difference, should bet that the planet spins, and only half is exposed to sunlight, at any given moment. Earth is round, sort of like a ball. I've never bothered to look into flat-earth views. The curved surface means that the part of the planet exposed to sunlight, isn't going to get the full dose the entire day. Most notable at sunrise and sunset. Sunlight provides energy for a lot of natural processes, which don't happen on the dark side of the planet. But, of course, the lack of energy from the sun, allows other natural processes to take place as well. A lot of the crap that builds up during the daylight hours, gets destroyed overnight. In a lab jar, you control all the variables, and quantities. Those conditions never exist outside. The instruments used in the lab, can be highly precise, but they don't scale up to a planetary size. Best we get from satellites, is an approximation, a huge margin of error. Computers are great, for smoothing things out, filling in some holes, produce pretty pictures too. It's the best we have to work with, so just roll with it, even with the high margin of error. |

Harvey, you're just getting into outright ignorance now. You're just making random statements. Formaldehyde does not occur at night. Are you sure the planet is round? I've circled it over 360º and have sailed (went by ship) across the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans. As for myself, I think this image from Google Earth shows the curvature of the Earth. p.s., so it would be a bad thing if an American citizen who is a disabled Veteran discovers a new process in atmospheric chemistry because the US is not a world leader but is a World Beater, right?

That is also where stratospheric ozone levels are also over 500 dobson units. Warmer stratosphere, cooler troposphere. IMO this helps to show how ozone and atmospheric air pressure + latitude influence atmospheric temperatures. It has been cold in Great Britain, right? p.s., the area above the darker blue is Iceland. If people are familiar with Iceland, it's known for hot water because of it giving off a lot of geothermal heat/hot springs. And atmospheric air pressure seems to be a little higher from Iceland and north into the Greenland/Norwegian Sea area (they're 2 separate seas that border each other).

The US is a World Beater and that makes Harvey right? No wonder I'm not considered an American.
