The literature on atmospheric particulate matter (PM), or atmospheric aerosol, has increased
enormously over the last 2 decades and amounts now to some 1500–2000 papers per year …

Multiple linkages connect air quality and climate change. Many air pollutant sources also
emit carbon dioxide (CO2), the dominant anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG). The two …

Smoke from wildfires is a growing health risk across the US. Understanding the spatial and
temporal patterns of such exposure and its population health impacts requires separating …

Fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) is a severe air pollution problem in China. Observations of
PM 2.5 have been available since 2013 from a large network operated by the China …

This chapter assesses the scientific literature describing expectations for near-term climate
(present through mid-century). Unless otherwise stated," near-term" change and the …

The haze pollution accompanies rapid urbanization and industrial development is the
central environmental problem for academia, the government, and the public in China today …

The recent severe and frequent PM 2.5 (ie, fine particles smaller than 2.5 µ m) pollution in
China has aroused unprecedented public concern. The first two years of PM 2.5 …

Emissions of air pollutants and their precursors determine regional air quality and can alter
climate. Climate change can perturb the long-range transport, chemical processing, and …

Atmospheric particulate have deleterious impacts on human health. Predicting dust and
aerosol emission and transport would be helpful to reduce harmful impacts but, despite …

Aerosol− cloud interactions account for the largest uncertainty in current estimates of
changes in radiative forcing according to the most recent IPCC report. 1 The term “aerosol …
