On the effects of the ocean on atmospheric CFC-11 lifetimes and emissions [PDF]

, 2021
© 2021 National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved. The ocean is a reservoir for CFC-11, a major ozone-depleting chemical. Anthropogenic production of CFC-11 dramatically decreased in the 1990s under the Montreal Protocol, which stipulated a global

Agricultural burning monitored for air pollutants in Imperial County; exposure reduction recommendations developed

California Agriculture, 2012
Air pollutants, notably particulate matter (PM) with aerodynamic diameter smaller than 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5), are emitted during agricultural burning. We studied a winter period in Imperial County when predominantly bermuda-grass stubble was burned. At

The Impact on the Ozone Layer of a Potential Fleet of Civil Hypersonic Aircraft

Earth's Future, 2020
The aeronautical community is currently researching technology that might lead to commercial hypersonic aircraft that would cruise at Mach 5–8 in the middle or upper stratosphere and would transfer passengers from London to New York or from Los Angeles ...

Development of a sensor suite for atmospheric boundary layer measurement with a small multirotor unmanned aerial system

International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace, 2020
Small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) are increasingly being used to conduct atmospheric research. Because of the dynamic nature and inhomogeneity of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), the ability of instrumented sUAS to make on-demand 3-dimensional ...

The compound event that triggered the destructive fires of October 2017 in Portugal

iScience, 2023
Summary: Portugal is regularly affected by destructive wildfires that have severe social, economic, and ecological impacts. The total burnt area in 2017 (∼540,000 ha) marked the all-time record value since 1980 with a tragic toll of 114 fatalities that ...

Fumigant emission reductions with TIF warrant regulatory changes

California Agriculture, 2013
With methyl bromide's phase-out, most growers have turned to alternative fumigants, particularly 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) and chloropicrin. These alternatives are tightly regulated because they are classified as toxic air contaminants and volatile ...

Correcting biases in regional climate model boundary variables for improved simulation of high-impact compound events

iScience, 2023
Summary: Although climate models have been used to assess compound events, the combination of multiple hazards or drivers poses uncertainties because of the systemic biases present.
