Newly elucidated reaction dynamics of bromoform (CHBr₃) in the solvents methanol (top) and methylcyclohexane (bottom). The atoms are represented as follows: carbon (cyan), bromine (pink), hydrogen (grey) and oxygen (red).

Scientists at @europeanxfel.bsky.social have revealed structural evidence for this roaming mechanism for the first time, establishing it as a universal characteristic of photochemical reactions. The study provides key insights how halomethane compounds such as #bromoform impact the #ozonelayer.

Impacts of Socio‐Economic Development Scenarios on Long‐Term Oceanic Emissions and Abundances of Atmospheric Bromoform and Dibromomethane Long-term (2015–2100) monthly emission inventories for CHBr3 and CH2Br2 are developed under different climate change scenarios Socio-economic activities could increase global oceanic CHBr3 and CH...

Feeding Cows Seaweed Can Reduce Methane Emissions, but the Additives Still Come With Plenty of Challenges There are still hurdles to overcome, but growing the seaweed industry in a state known for lobster could be a win for local fishermen, dairy and cattle operations, and the planet.
