Influence of Atmospheric Aerosols on Evapotranspiration over a Semiarid Region in Northeast Brazil
The knowledge of atmospheric aerosol characteristics at regional and local scales, their temporal changes and interrelations with meteorological variables are of great importance because can modify the global radiative energy balance.

TEMPO Aerosol Optical Depth and Aerosol Layer Height Retrieval Algorithm
AbstractWe developed an aerosol optical depth (AOD) and aerosol layer height (ALH) retrieval algorithm for Tropospheric Emissions: Monitoring of Pollution (TEMPO), the first geostationary sensor for monitoring air pollution over North America by enhancing state‐of‐the‐art algorithms originally developed for polar‐orbiting satellites to generate a suite

Abstract The Asian Summer Monsoon (ASM) acts as a key mechanism for the vertical transport of surface pollutants into the upper troposphere (UT), which can have far‐reaching impacts on air quality and climate at regional to global scales. We analyze 16 years (2008–2023) of carbon monoxide (CO) observations from the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding ...

Abstract The dependence of aeolian dust transport on atmospheric circulation patterns allows dust preserved in Antarctic ice cores to serve as a proxy for past circulation variability. Here, we investigate dust transport to high‐elevation Dronning Maud Land (DML) in Antarctica through analysis of the 1300‐year‐old ISOL‐ICE ice core dust record together

Abstract Biomass burning aerosol (BBA) impacts climate through aerosol‐cloud‐radiation interactions, but models disagree on the sign and magnitude of BBA radiative effects. We quantify the sensitivity of BBA radiative effects and transport to three BBA‐relevant processes and properties: parameterized oxidative aging of organic aerosol (OA), a combined ...

Initial Assessment of the Detectability of Cyanotoxin Occurrence Using PACE Satellite Observations
Abstract Microcystin is a major public health hazard during freshwater cyanobacterial blooms, yet its remote detection remains challenging because it lacks any direct optical absorption features. We demonstrate that hyperspectral observations from NASA's PACE Ocean Color Instrument (OCI) can be used to detect elevated microcystin concentrations by ...

Mascarene High Variability Shapes the Demography of a Wind‐Reliant Marine Top Predator
Abstract Subtropical anticyclones are semi‐permanent atmospheric high‐pressure systems located in all five major ocean basins and are associated with large‐scale wind and weather patterns. They shape the physical environments of many species, yet their impacts on wildlife remain unexplored. We combined population and climate analyses to investigate the
