Abstract The 1999 Regional Haze Rule provides a context for this review of visibility, the
science that describes it, and the use of that science in regulatory guidance. The scientific …

We combine global distributions of aerosol loading resulting from transport models for soil
dust, sulfate, sea salt, and carbonaceous aerosol. From the aerosol distributions we estimate …

We present a methodology for estimating the seasonal and interannual variation of biomass
burning designed for use in global chemical transport models. The average seasonal …

Aerosol mixtures composed of coarse mode desert dust combined with fine mode
combustion generated aerosols (from fossil fuel and biomass burning sources) were …

Gaseous and particulate emissions from vegetation fires substantially modify the
atmospheric chemical composition, degrade air quality and can alter weather and climate …

A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire in an area of combustible vegetation that occurs in the
countryside or a wilderness area. The United Nation International Strategy for Disaster …

The deposition of phosphorus (P) from African dust is believed to play an important role in
bolstering primary productivity in the Amazon Basin and Tropical Atlantic Ocean (TAO) …

I present an analysis of ozonesonde data, synthesizing what is known about the distribution
of tropospheric ozone. Major features of the distribution are highlighted, and …

Africa is the single largest continental source of biomass burning emissions. Here we
conduct the first analysis of one full year of geostationary active fire detections and fire …

We present a comprehensive examination of aerosol absorption with a focus on evaluating
the sensitivity of the global distribution of aerosol absorption to key uncertainties in the …
