NASA: Smog chemical tied to Arctic warming ‘It’s very dramatic,’ study lead author says of ozone findings MSNBC staff and news service reports Updated: 10:16 a.m. ET March 15, 2006 Ground-level ozone, the same pollutant that makes smog, is responsible for a surprisingly large part of the spring and summer warming that’s been detected in the Arctic, NASA researchers said in a new study. “Instead of being this tiny player, (ozone) can be more like 30 or 40 or even 50 percent of the cause of warming that we’re seeing in the Arctic now,” said lead author Drew Shindell, a scientist at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies. “It’s very dramatic.” Carbon dioxide has long been considered a key cause of overall global warming because it remains in the atmosphere for a long time, Shindell said.
