The prime focus of NASA's Atmospheric Chemistry Program is improving
our understanding of the chemistry and processes affecting atmospheric
ozone, especially the stratospheric ozone layer. Instruments are flown
on high-altitude balloons, high-altitude aircraft, and spacecraft,
while research and analysis are carried out in laboratories and by
computer modelling. Click here for a longer summary of the program,
and here for a graphic of the different elements of the program.
