Heterogeneous Iodine Chemistry Impacts Reactive Halogen and Oxidant Abundances
Abstract Tropospheric reactive halogens influence the oxidizing capacity of the atmosphere. Although previous studies have shown that iodine exerts the strongest impact on tropospheric ozone concentrations compared to chlorine and bromine, the impact of aerosol iodide recycling back to the gas phase on oxidants has not been estimated prior to this work.

Sulfur Exposure for Airplane Passengers From Stratospheric Aerosol Injection
Abstract Injection of sulfur dioxide to create a stratospheric sulfate aerosol cloud is the most studied method of climate intervention. It has been suggested that airplanes be used at high latitudes to create such a cloud at lower altitudes. Commercial airplanes routinely fly at altitudes of 11 km in the Arctic, and therefore passengers could be ...

Abstract How tropical cyclone (TC) frequency may change following volcanic eruptions remains debated, owing to limited contemporary eruption samples. Using last‐millennium multi‐member simulations with CESM, we show that post‐eruption TC genesis potential over the western North Pacific consistently decreases during the storm season following extremely ...

Highland Pathways Shape Global Dust Vertical Transport and Its Climate Effects
Abstract Highlands govern global dust vertical transport, yet their region‐specific pathways and climatic impacts remain unclear. We found that although dust emissions from highlands are minimal, the dust content in the middle and upper atmosphere over highlands is high, identifying highlands as key dust conduits.

Local and Remote Impacts of Regional Irrigation on Near‐Surface Temperature
Abstract Irrigation is a major human intervention in the global land‐atmosphere system. However, increasing climate variability and associated regional water scarcity may lead to abrupt reductions in irrigation. In this study, we use the Community Earth System Model to investigate the global near‐surface air temperature response to irrigation cessation
