Lightning NOx influence on large-scale NOy and O3 plumes observed over the northern mid-latitudes

Sensitivity of the NOy budget over the United States to anthropogenic and lightning NOx in summer

[1] We examine the implications of new estimates of the anthropogenic and lightning nitrogen oxide (NOx) source for the budget of oxidized nitrogen (NOy) over the United States in summer using a 3‐D global chemical transport model (Model of Ozone and Related Tracers‐4). As a result of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) State Implementation call, power plant NOx emissions over the eastern...

Removal of NOx and NOy in Asian outflow plumes: Aircraft measurements over the western Pacific in January 2002

[1] The Pacific Exploration of Asian Continental Emission Phase A (PEACE-A) aircraft measurement campaign was conducted over the western Pacific in January 2002. Correlations of carbon monoxide (CO) with carbon dioxide (CO2) and back trajectories are used to identify plumes strongly affected by Asian continental emissions. DCO/DCO2 ratios (i.e., linear regression slopes of CO-CO2) in the plumes...
