Applying Satellite‐Derived PM2.5 Data to Policy‐Relevant Air Quality Metrics

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Since 2000, the American Lung Association (ALA) has published an annual “State of the Air” report, which assigns grades and ranks United States (U.S.) cities and counties based on data from regulatory monitors reported to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). We evaluate satellite‐derived gridded data sets for fine particulate matter (PM2.

Changes of Long‐Term Exposure to Ultrafine Particles From 2010 to 2019 in High Income Countries in Relation to Cardiovascular Diseases

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Ultrafine particles (UFPs) are ubiquitous in the atmosphere and occur at high number concentrations. Despite their ability to penetrate deep into the respiratory system, their harmfulness remains insufficiently studied, primarily due to the lack of reliable standardised and harmonized long‐term global exposure data.

On the Variability of the Agulhas Bank Circulation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract This modeling study investigates the variability of the Agulhas Bank (AB) circulation, focusing on its connections to the local wind forcing and the Agulhas Current (AC) as well as to teleconnections to the tropical South Atlantic. The mean AB circulation is dominated by a westward flow composed of a coastal jet, an outer‐shelf flow influenced

Application and Evaluation of a NOAA GFS‐Driven Air Quality Model Using CMAQv5.4 and High‐Resolution Emissions: FIREX‐AQ 2019

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The National Air Quality Forecast Capability (NAQFC) provides numerical forecasting guidance of air quality up to 72 hr ahead over the United States. In this study, we evaluate the changes in its prediction skills by updating the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system from version 5.3.1 to 5.4 and utilizing a high‐resolution 1‐
