Nitrate Photolysis in the Upper Boundary Layer as a Daytime Missing Source of HONO: Revealed by In Situ Airship Measurements and Modeling

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The missing source of nitrous acid (HONO) is a key uncertainty in understanding atmospheric chemistry in the troposphere. Particulate nitrate photolysis has been proposed as a potential source of daytime HONO, but its contribution remains poorly constrained, with even less attention paid to the impact of nitrate aloft. Here, we investigate the

Reply to Comment by Millet et al. on “Tracking Ethane From Space Over a Large US Oil and Gas Region”

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract We thank Millet et al. for their comment in discussing the methodology and conclusions reached in Francoeur et al. (2025, https://doi.org/10.1029/2025gl115286). In general, we agree with the key points of the comment, although with significant caveats.

Modeling the Distribution, Impacts, and Mitigation of Anthropogenic Heat in Los Angeles

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Anthropogenic heat emissions from human energy consumption contribute to the urban heat island (UHI) effect, yet their spatiotemporal distributions and impacts remain uncertain. In this study, we develop a 100 m resolution, hourly anthropogenic heat flux (AHF) data set for Los Angeles County and use the Weather Research and Forecasting model ...

Comparison of Soil Mineralogy From EMIT Imaging Spectroscopy and Ground‐Based Measurements in the Deserts of Southern California

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract The highly variable spatial composition of desert soils remains a major source of uncertainty in estimates of dust radiative forcing. Existing soil mineralogy data sets used in climate models are limited by sparse ground observations and coarse spatial resolution.

Toward Improved Tropical Cyclone Forecasting: An Optimized Strategy Combining Dynamic Initialization and Bogus Data Assimilation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract In numerical weather prediction, dynamic initialization (DI) of tropical cyclones (TCs) and bogus data assimilation (BDA) are two widely used vortex initialization methods, both of which substantially affect the track and intensity of simulated TCs.

The Impact of Nocturnal Boundary Layer Height on Daytime Surface Particulate Nitrate Increases by Vertical Transport From the Residual Layer

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Particulate nitrate (pNO3−) has become a critical air‐quality issue, with pronounced morning increases in surface concentrations attributed to downward transport from upper layer. However, how the nocturnal boundary layer evolution modulates this process remains unclear.

Contrasting Mechanisms of Heatwave‐Ozone Pollution Compound Events and Independent Heatwave Events in the Yangtze River Delta

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Heat waves do not always coincide with ozone pollution, yet the mechanisms controlling their divergence remain insufficiently understood. Here, we investigate why some heat waves evolved into heatwave‐ozone pollution compound events (HWOP), whereas others remained isolated heat wave events (IHW), over the Yangtze River Delta during summer 2024.

An Analysis of Hurricane Eyewall Ice Using a Novel Lagrangian Trajectory and Growth Model

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Ice crystals in tropical cyclones (TCs) remain infrequently observed and difficult to model using Eulerian microphysics parameterizations. To better understand TC eyewall ice crystal processes, the Ice Crystal Trajectory Growth (ICTG) model, previously applied to an idealized squall line, was used to simulate Lagrangian ice crystal ...
