Quantitative attribution of PM2.5 and NO2 pollution in a coal-based city of Fenwei Plain, China, using a Generalized Additive Model
Quantitative attribution of PM2.5 and NO2 pollution in a coal-based city of Fenwei Plain, China, using a Generalized Additive Model Abstract Taiyuan, as a typical resource based city in China, is undergoing an energy transition from heavy industry to clean development. Assessing the air quality benefits resulting from its transformation policies could offer valuable insights […]
TURAAB: A 34-Year Dust and Atmospheric Regional Reanalysis for the Middle East, North Africa and Mediterranean—First Insights
TURAAB: A 34-Year Dust and Atmospheric Regional Reanalysis for the Middle East, North Africa and Mediterranean—First Insights Abstract The Mediterranean, Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region exhibits distinctive climate behavior, shaped by complex topography and large-scale circulation, while warming and aridification intensify extremes. Desert dust, present year-round at high concentrations, perturbs the radiative budget, […]
Understanding the elevated PM2.5 pollution in the Middle East during May 2022: Insights from numerical simulations
Understanding the elevated PM2.5 pollution in the Middle East during May 2022: Insights from numerical simulations Abstract During May 2022, the Middle East region (MER) experienced four prolonged and severe atmospheric pollution episodes (APEs), resulting in severe fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution in the region. In this study, the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model was […]
