In support of the first Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) a relational database global surface ozone observations has been developed and populated with hourly measurement data enhanced metadata. A comprehensive suite products including standard statistics, health vegetation impact metrics, trend information, are made available through common portal web interface. These form basis TOAR analyses focusing on human health, vegetation, climate relevant issues, which part this special...

Dry deposition is a major component of total atmospheric nitrogen and thus an important source bioavailable to ecosystems. However, relative wet deposition, less known regarding the sources spatial variability dry deposition. This in part due difficulty measuring associated velocities. Passive sampling techniques offer potential for improving our understanding distribution gaseous aerosol N species, referred here as We report dual nitrate isotopic composition ( δ 15 18 O) actively collected...

Abstract. Ambient air monitoring as part of the US Environmental Protection Agency's (US EPA's) Clean Air Status and Trends Network (CASTNet) currently uses filter packs to measure weekly integrated concentrations. The EPA is interested in supplementing CASTNet with semi-continuous systems at select sites characterize atmospheric chemistry deposition nitrogen sulfur compounds higher time resolution than pack. Monitor for AeRosols GAses ambient (MARGA) measures water-soluble gases aerosols an...

Total atmospheric deposition of nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) pollutants leads to deleterious impacts on ecosystems that can include acidification, increases in harmful algal blooms (HAB), decreases forest growth, loss species diversity. Accurate long-term datasets describe spatiotemporal variations trends N S are needed support ecosystem management advance research ecological from deposition. To address this need, the total measurement-model fusion application (TDep MMF) was developed under...
