The impact of historical land use change from 1850 to 2000 on particulate matter and ozone [PDF]

, 2018
Anthropogenic land use change (LUC) since pre-industrial (1850) has altered the vegetation distribution and density around the world. We use a global model (GEOS-Chem) to assess the attendant changes in surface air quality and the direct radiative ...
