That's right.
So often we have to develop or build atmospheric equipment, scientific equipment, because...
It's not available out there.
You can't go and buy something off the shelf to measure tiny radicals at concentrations of less than one parts per trillion.
So we often get involved in instrument development as well.
And yes, go out into the field and measure it there and then.
You're absolutely right.
We think of the ocean as this vast sink of things like CO2, carbon dioxide, but it does emit gases as well.
And maybe that's been somewhat overlooked.
It's quite hard to get out there into the open ocean.
We all know the ocean's full of salt and there's a whole bunch of marine biology that's quite active.
So they can act to produce aerosol particles that can influence clouds and influence the oxidising capacity of our atmosphere as well.
That's right.
So 90% of ozone in the atmosphere resides in the stratosphere.
Is the upper.
So that's around 10 to 50 kilometres above our heads.
That's not a fixed zone, but depends on temperature and latitude.
So that's where the ozone layer is, the protective layer that protects us from harmful solar UV radiation.
The troposphere is completely different.
The way the ozone is formed in the troposphere is different.
