Dairy-CropSyst: Gaseous emissions and nutrient fate modeling tool

Multimedia modeling of polybrominated diphenyl ether emissions and fate indoors.

We adapted an indoor multimedia fugacity model to consider emissions and fate of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and to understand the variability of indoor concentrations. The model was applied to an office in which an 80% decrease in PBDE air concentration was observed after an old computer was exchanged with a newer one. PBDE-impregnated polyurethane foam (PUF) and carpet were treated...

Emissions Calculated from Particulate Matter and Gaseous Ammonia Measurements from Commercial Dairy in California, USA

Gaseous emissions from flooded rice paddy agriculture

[1] Modification of continental land for agricultural use has increased over the last century. Atmospheric impact of this land use change has only been addressed for a few ecosystems and compounds. This paper provides, to date, the most comprehensive examination of gaseous emissions from rice paddies. We report seasonal emission ranges and integrated emission totals for 55 chemical species. Thi...

Gaseous Planets, Protostars, and Young Brown Dwarfs: Birth and Fate

We review recent theoretical progress aimed at understanding the formation and the early stages of evolution of giant planets, low-mass stars, and brown dwarfs. Calculations coupling giant planet formation, within a modern version of the core accretion model that includes planet migration and disk evolution, and subsequent evolution yield consistent determinations of the planet structure and ev...

Gaseous and particulate emissions from prescribed burning in Georgia.

Prescribed burning is a significant source of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in the southeastern United States. However, limited data exist on the emission characteristics from this source. Various organic and inorganic compounds both in the gas and particle phase were measured in the emissions of prescribed burnings conducted at two pine-dominated forest areas in Georgia. The measurements of ...
