We studied and reconstructed a severe Central Asian dust storm of November 4, 2021, through high-resolution TROPOMI UVAI spaceborne observations, ground-based aerosol measurements, Lagrangian particle modeling. The was caused by the front part cold polar anticyclone from Ural-Volga regions, which struck central eastern parts Uzbekistan under favorable atmospheric conditions. Two plumes spread out, causing thick haze to blanket region. most effects hit capital (Tashkent) Fergana Valley, where...
Although most countries have submitted their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC), there is a lack of understanding what policies are effective in terms carbon emission reduction under the announced pledges. We use East Asia as case study to estimate importance national environmental fossil fuel emissions (FFCO2). show that flagship China, Japan, South Korea and Mongolia 2010s were generally beneficial slowing down FFCO2 growth rates. When polices enacted, annual rate has either slowed...
Coal use exacerbates several major environmental problems including build-up of greenhouse gases and air quality deterioration. Although Kuzbass (Siberia) is one the largest exploited coal basins worldwide, role regional mining processing in atmospheric pollution unknown. We outlined basin by spaceborne night-lights revealed a regional, long-term tropospheric NO2 anomaly (2005-2018) column observations (hereafter ‒ NO2). The spatial agreement between indicates that attributable to an...
Abstract Gas flaring during oil extraction over the Arctic region is primary source of warming-inducing aerosols (e.g. black carbon (BC)) with a strong potential to affect regional climate change. Despite continual BC emissions near Ocean via gas flaring, climatic impact related remains uncertain. Here, we present simulations using an earth system model comprehensive aerosol physics show that increases in from can potentially explain significant fraction warming. high latitudes contribute...
A cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) G-2401m analyzer onboard a Beechcraft King Air 350, new Korean Meteorological Administration (KMA) research aircraft measurement platform since 2018, has been used to measure in situ CO2, CH4, and CO. We analyzed the measurements obtained two campaigns: within-boundary layer survey over western Republic of Korea (hereafter Korea) for analyzing CO2 CH4 emission characteristics each season (the climate change monitoring (CM) CM mission), low altitude...
Understanding the temporal variability of atmospheric methane (CH4) and its potential drivers can advance progress toward mitigating changes to climate. To comprehend interannual spatial characteristics anomalous CH4 mole fractions drivers, we used integrated data from different platforms such as in situ measurements satellites (TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) Greenhouse Gases Observing SATellite (GOSAT)) retrievals. A pronounced change annual growth rate was detected at...
Researchers have warned that the paradigm about who should measure air quality (AQ) in cities can change as low-cost commercial sensors for monitoring atmospheric composition gain global popularity. The new implies expansion of traditionally governmental responsibilities AQ (to collect, interpret, and explain data) to previously uninvolved actors. This study reports a first practical example such changed occurred large industrial city Krasnoyarsk (Russia). We describe how severe problems...
Abstract. Accurate continuous measurements of relative humidity (RH) vertical profiles in the lower troposphere have become a significant scientific challenge. In recent years synergy various ground-based remote sensing instruments been successfully used for RH profiling, which has resulted improvement spatial resolution and, some cases, accuracy measurement. Some studies also suggested use high-resolution model simulations as input datasets into profiling techniques. this paper we apply two...
There are still large uncertainties in the estimates of net ecosystem exchange CO2 (NEE) with atmosphere Asia, particularly boreal and eastern part temperate Asia. To understand these uncertainties, we assessed CarbonTracker Asia (CTA2017) spatial temporal distributions NEE through a comparison FLUXCOM global inversion models from Copernicus Atmospheric Monitoring Service (CAMS), Composition Climate (MACC), Jena CarboScope as well examining impact nesting approach on optimized flux during...
Global ultraviolet (UV) surface reflectivity climatologies are all composed from daylight passive remote sensing observations of reflected UV light, generally integrated over a distribution attainable reflection directions. We discovered the sensitivity Aeolus lidar returns (LSR) to characteristics, providing first evidence that active can be effectively used for retrieving unidirectional on global scales. LSR reproduces monthly changes in Sahara, which visible Lambertian Equivalent...
Abstract This study presents an analysis of the atmospheric footprint sensitivities and CO 2 enhancements measured at three in situ stations South Korea (Anmyeondo (AMY), Gosan (JGS), Ulleungdo (ULD)) using KIM-STILT WRF-STILT transport models. Monthly aggregated footprints for each station were compared between models July December 2020. The revealed major source regions sensitivity mole fractions receptor to upstream surface fluxes. In July, both showed similar AMY station, including...
