A two-way coupled regional urban–street network air quality model system for Beijing, China [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2023 Owing to the substantial traffic emissions in urban areas, especially near road areas, the concentrations of pollutants, such as ozone (O3) and its precursors, have a large difference compared to regional averages, and their distributions cannot be ...

Modeling the Impact of Atmospheric Warming on Staple Crop Growth in China in the 1960s and 2000s
Atmosphere, 2020 Responses of crop growth to climate warming are fundamental to future food security. The response of crops to climate change may be subtly different at their growing stages.

Wet and dry deposition of atmospheric nitrogen at ten sites in Northern China [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2012 Emissions of reactive nitrogen (N) species can affect surrounding ecosystems via atmospheric deposition. However, few long-term and multi-site measurements have focused on both the wet and the dry deposition of individual N species in large areas of ...

An improved process-oriented hydro-biogeochemical model for simulating dynamic fluxes of methane and nitrous oxide in alpine ecosystems with seasonally frozen soils [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2021 The hydro-biogeochemical model Catchment Nutrient Management Model – DeNitrification-DeComposition (CNMM-DNDC) was established to simultaneously quantify ecosystem productivity and losses of nitrogen and carbon at the site or catchment scale.

Controls on boundary layer ventilation: Boundary layer processes and large-scale dynamics [PDF]
, 2010 Midlatitude cyclones are important contributors to boundary layer ventilation. However, it is uncertain how efficient such systems are at transporting pollutants out of the boundary layer, and variations between cyclones are unexplained. In this study 15

A ‘receptive’ boundary layer [PDF]
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2010 Receptivity is the process which describes how environmental disturbances (such as gusts, acoustic waves or wall roughness) are filtered by a boundary layer and turned into downstream-growing waves. It is closely related to the identification of initial conditions for the disturbances and requires knowledge of the characteristics of the specific ...

Extreme fluctuations of vertical velocity in the unstable atmospheric surface layer [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2014 In this paper, we propose a new method to extract the extreme fluctuations of vertical velocity in the unstable atmospheric surface layer. Unlike the commonly used conditional sampling analysis, this method defines a threshold by using a systematical ...
