Air quality and climate connections.
UNLABELLED Multiple linkages connect air quality and climate change. Many air pollutant sources also emit carbon dioxide (CO2), the dominant anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG). The two main contributors to non-attainment of U.S. ambient air quality standards, ozone (O3) and particulate matter (PM), interact with radiation, forcing climate change. PM warms by absorbing sunlight (e.g., black carb...

متن کاملEffect of climate change on air quality
Air quality is strongly dependent on weather and is therefore sensitive to climate change. Recent studies have provided estimates of this climate effect through correlations of air quality with meteorological variables, perturbation analyses in chemical transport models (CTMs), and CTM simulations driven by general circulation model (GCM) simulations of 21st-century climate change. We review th...
متن کاملAir Quality in a Changing Climate
Once, in the not so distant past, smoke belching from urban factories and plants was viewed as a symbol of a prosperous, growing economy with abundant jobs. However, awareness of the downside of such pollution spawned the environmental movement of the 1960s, culminating in the Clean Air Act Amendment of 1970. This landmark legislation provided the regulatory mandates and legal tools that stimul...
متن کاملSatellite observations of air quality, climate and volcanic eruptions
Nitrogen oxides (NOx, the collective name for NO and NO2) play an important role in atmospheric chemistry and in the climate system as precursor of tropospheric ozone, an important greenhouse gas. The most important source of NOx is the combustion of fossil fuels, mainly by traffic and large power plants. Other important contributors are the burning of biomass, soil emissions and lightning. Clo...
