Extreme precipitation events in the Mediterranean area: contrasting two different models for moisture source identification [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021 Concern about heavy precipitation events has increasingly grown in the last years in southern Europe, especially in the Mediterranean region. These occasional episodes can result in more than 200 mm of rainfall in less than 24 h, producing flash floods ...

Comparisons between the distributions of dust and combustion aerosols in MERRA-2, FLEXPART, and CALIPSO and implications for deposition freezing over wintertime Siberia [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022 Aerosol distributions have a potentially large influence on climate-relevant cloud properties but can be difficult to observe over the Arctic given pervasive cloudiness, long polar nights, data paucity over remote regions, and periodic diamond dust ...

Investigation of the wet removal rate of black carbon in East Asia: validation of a below- and in-cloud wet removal scheme in FLEXible PARTicle (FLEXPART) model v10.4 [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020 Understanding the global distribution of atmospheric black carbon (BC) is essential for unveiling its climatic effect. However, there are still large uncertainties regarding the simulation of BC transport due to inadequate information about the removal ...

Enhancement of carbon monoxide concentration in atmosphere due to large scale forest fire of Uttarakhand [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 The richly forested Indian state of Uttarakhand experienced widespread forest fires in April to May 2016. The current study examines dispersion of carbon monoxide (CO) from the source regions of forest fire to distant places, using the Lagrangian ...

Source regions of some persistent organic pollutants measured in the atmosphere at Birkenes, Norway [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2009 A key feature of POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) is their potential for long-range atmospheric transport. In order to better understand and predict atmospheric source-receptor relationships of POPs, we have modified an existing Lagrangian transport ...
