Atmospheric Aerosol Optical Properties in the Persian Gulf Region
Aerosol optical depth measurements over Bahrain acquired through the ground-based Aerosol Robotic Network are analyzed. Optical depths obtained from ground-based sun/sky radiometers showed a pronounced temporal trend, with a maximum dust aerosol loading observed during the March to July period. The aerosol optical depth probability distribution is rather narrow with a modal value of about 0.25....
متن کاملCasualties in the Persian Gulf
I read with much interest the article on the above subject by Captains Barber and Doyle in the March number of the Gazette. I was particularly interested in their remarks regarding the value of the first field dressing and the occurrence of tetanus in Arab and Turkish wounded prisoners.

متن کاملOzone, air pollution, and respiratory health.
Of the outdoor air pollutants regulated by the Clean Air Act of 1970 (and recently revised in 1990), ozone has been the one pollutant most difficult to control within the federal standards. The known human health effects are all on the respiratory system. At concentrations of ozone which occur during summer air-pollution episodes in many urban metropolitan areas of the United States, a portion ...
متن کاملTropospheric Ozone: an Air Pollution Problem Arising in the Washington,
Weather fleck observed on certain varieties of tobacco since 1052 at the U.S. r)epartment of Agriculture Plant Industry Station, Beltsville, Md., may be indicative of an ozone air pollr~tion problem arising in the Washington, I1.C. area. A study of ozone concentrations and meteorological conditions existing prior to and at the time of the occurrence of weather fleck indicates that the high ozon...
متن کاملAir Pollution: Salt Mist Is the Right Seasoning for Ozone
Salt Mist Is the Right Seasoning for Ozone Shipping ports face a newly discovered air pollution problem—the production of the ozone precursor nitryl chloride. Nitryl chloride was detected for the first time in the lowest part of the Earth’s atmosphere by a team from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that was monitoring air quality in Galveston Bay to understand why near...
