متن کاملReforestation and crop land conversion impacts on future regional air quality in the Southeastern U
18 Land in the southeastern U.S. is expected to change, e.g., given the potential demand 19 to develop forest-to-fuel technologies or, conversely, cropification of current forests to 20 increase food production. Possible future PM2.5 and O3 air quality for two land use/land cover 21 change (LULCC) scenarios, reforestation and cropland conversion, are compared to a 22 reference case scenario for...
متن کاملPotential impact of land use change on future regional climate in the Southeastern U.S.: Reforestation and crop land conversion
[1] The impact of future land use and land cover changes (LULCC) on regional and global climate is one of the most challenging aspects of understanding anthropogenic climate change. We study the impacts of LULCC on regional climate in the southeastern U.S. by downscaling the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies global climate model E to the regional scale using a spectral nudging technique ...
