The Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment, SAGE, is a series of instruments designed by NASA to observe stratospheric ozone, aerosols, and water vapor from space. In the mid-1980s, scientists realized there was a problem with Earth’s protective coat of ozone...it was thinning. The SAGE family of instruments was pivotal in making accurate measurements of the amount of ozone loss in Earth’s atmosphere and helped leaders around the world institute an international treaty banning products containing harmful chemicals that destroy stratospheric ozone. SAGE is a key part of NASA’s mission to provide crucial, long-term measurements that will help humans better understand and care for Earth’s atmosphere.
In our continuing endeavor to make SAGE III data more accessible and to increase its utilization, the SAGE III/ISS team at NASA Langley Research Center launched enhancements and new features to the Quicklook and Expedited website for data visualization products. Some highlights of the changes made include easier navigation and display on mobile devices, as […]
