The effects of e-cigarette use on asthma severity in adult BALB/c mice. [PDF]
Abstract Electronic cigarettes (e‐cigarettes) are often perceived to be a less harmful alternative to tobacco cigarettes. Potentially due to this perception, they are used by people with pre‐existing respiratory conditions, such as asthma, who otherwise would not smoke. Despite this, there are few studies exploring the health effects of e‐cigarette use

Abstract Many atmospheric chemical processes, including the formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA), are strongly modulated by the reactions of NO and NO2NOx ${\text{NO}}_{2}\ \left({\text{NO}}_{x}\right)$. Though NOx ${\text{NO}}_{x}$ is controlled by anthropogenic emissions near urban areas, in rural areas soil microbes can be a significant ...

The Legacy of Colonial‐Era Urban Planning on Present Day Air Quality Disparities in Kampala, Uganda
Abstract British colonial urban planners in Kampala, Uganda, designed segregated neighborhoods for Europeans, Asians, and Africans, under the colonial public health guidance. No studies have investigated how these historical urban design decisions relate to modern air pollution exposure disparities in African cities.

Sentinel‐5p Reveals Unexplained Large Wildfire Carbon Emissions in the Amazon in 2024
Abstract In 2024, the Amazon region experienced severe wildfires driven by exceptional drought conditions. Advanced fire emission models estimated Amazon carbon monoxide (CO) emissions between 28 and 62 Tg during the main August‐September Amazon fire season. The majority of the 2024 CO emissions came from (understorey) forest fires, unlike the previous

Abstract Equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) quantifies surface warming in response to doubled pre‐industrial CO2 (2xCO2). Uncertainty in estimates arises from diverse model representations and climate‐chemistry feedbacks. We quantify ECS with five atmospheric chemistry‐composition model representations (sea salt, dust, organics, ozone, sea ice ...

Abstract Accurate aerosol particle size distribution is essential for estimating radiative forcing but is often hindered by assumptions that oversimplify more physical approximations of aerosol mixing state and size. This work performs a single‐site observational‐closure study that combines AERONET multi‐wavelength extinction and absorption retrievals,

Hemispheric Synoptic Patterns Control Rainfall and Long‐Range Aerosol Transport in the Amazon
Abstract The transatlantic transport of dust and smoke aerosols from Africa to South America is a large‐scale, year‐round process that affects atmospheric and nutrient cycling in the Amazon rainforest. We analyze daily variations in black carbon at the Amazon Tall Tower Observatory (ATTO) to investigate how Atlantic synoptic‐scale meteorology ...

Abstract Understanding the impacts of future emissions reductions on wildfire risk is critical for climate adaptation under carbon neutrality scenarios. Here, this study investigates how reductions in aerosol and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions affect wildfire risk across major fire‐prone regions in China by using the coupled Community Earth System ...

Abstract In situ measurements of stratospheric aerosol are the only measurements that provide sufficient detail to determine aerosol number, size, surface area, volume/mass, and effective radius; however, these measurements are limited in space and time.
