Atmospheric composition change - global and regional air quality
Air quality transcends all scales with in the atmosphere from the local to the global with handovers and feedbacks at each scale interaction. Air quality has manifold effects on health, ecosystems heritage and, climate. In this review the state of scientif ...
2009Influence of El Nino-Southern Oscillation on the interannual variability of tropospheric ozone in the nothern midlatitudes
Isabelle Bey, Sylvia Generoso, Symeon Koumoutsaris
We use the GEOS-Chem model to interpret long-term measurements of tropospheric and CO and to investigate the factors that contribute to their interannual variation (IAV) during the period from 1987 to 2005 with a focus on the northern mid-latitu ...
2008Aerosol vertical distribution in dust outflow over the Atlantic: Comparisons between Global Earth Observing System (GEOS)-Chem and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO)
Vertically-resolved attenuated backscatter from the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) mission and Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT)from Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) are used to characterize t ...
2008A satellite- and model-based assessment of the 2003 Russian fires: Impact on the Arctic region
In this paper, we address the issues of the representation of boreal fires in a global chemistry and transport model (GEOS-Chem) as well as their contribution to the Arctic aerosol optical thickness and black carbon (BC) deposition, with a focus on the 200 ...
2007Assimilation of POLDER aerosol optical thickness into the LMDz-INCA model: Implications for the Arctic aerosol burden
The large spatial and temporal variability of atmospheric aerosol load makes it a challenge to quantify aerosol effect on climate. This study is one of the first attempts to apply data assimilation for the analysis of global aerosol distribution. Aerosol o ...
