A simple lightning assimilation technique for improving retrospective WRF simulations
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2016 Convective rainfall is often a large source of error in retrospective modeling applications. In particular, positive rainfall biases commonly exist during summer months due to overactive convective parameterizations. In this study, lightning assimilation

A framework for expanding aqueous chemistry in the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) model version 5.1 [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2017 This paper describes the development and implementation of an extendable aqueous-phase chemistry option (AQCHEM − KMT(I)) for the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system, version 5.1.

Distribution and Causes of Global Forest Fragmentation
Ecology and Society, 2003 Because human land uses tend to expand over time, forests that share a high proportion of their borders with anthropogenic uses are at higher risk of further degradation than forests that share a high proportion of their borders with non-forest, natural ...

Long-term trends in the ambient PM2.5- and O3-related mortality burdens in the United States under emission reductions from 1990 to 2010 [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2018 Concentrations of both fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone (O3) in the United States (US) have decreased significantly since 1990, mainly because of air quality regulations.

Global-Scale Patterns of Forest Fragmentation
Ecology and Society, 2000 We report an analysis of forest fragmentation based on 1-km resolution land-cover maps for the globe. Measurements in analysis windows from 81 km 2 (9 x 9 pixels, "small" scale) to 59,049 km 2 (243 x 243 pixels, "large" scale) were used to characterize ...

The role of mycotoxins in the human exposome: Application of mycotoxin biomarkers in exposome-health studies [PDF]
, 2018 Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi that may contaminate different foods intended for human consumption, resulting in a widespread exposure worldwide. The novel exposome paradigm has the ambition to decipher the different environmental

Primary and secondary oxidative stress in Bacillus [PDF]
, 2011 Coping with oxidative stress originating from oxidizing compounds or reactive oxygen species (ROS), associated with the exposure to agents that cause environmental stresses, is one of the prerequisites for an aerobic lifestyle of Bacillus spp. such as B.
