Regional warming from aerosol removal over the United States: Results from a transient 2010–2050 climate simulation
(Elsevier BV, 2012)
We use a general circulation model (NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies GCM 3) to investigate the regional climate response to removal of aerosols over the United States. We perform a pair of transient 2010–2050 climate ...
Climatic Effects of 1950-2050 Changes in US Anthropogenic Aerosols - Part 2: Climate Response
(European Geosciences Union, 2012)
We investigate the climate response to changing US anthropogenic aerosol sources over the 1950–2050 period by using the NASA GISS general circulation model (GCM) and comparing to observed US temperature trends. Time-dependent ...
Climatic Effects of 1950-2050 Changes in US Anthropogenic Aerosols - Part 1: Aerosol Trends and Radiative Forcing
(European Geosciences Union, 2012)
We calculate decadal aerosol direct and indirect (warm cloud) radiative forcings from US anthropogenic sources over the 1950–2050 period. Past and future aerosol distributions are constructed using GEOS-Chem and historical ...
Meteorological Modes of Variability for Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) Air Quality in the United States: Implications for PM2.5 Sensitivity to Climate Change
(European Geosciences Union, 2012)
We applied a multiple linear regression model to understand the relationships of PM2.5 with meteorological variables in the contiguous US and from there to infer the sensitivity of PM2.5 to climate change. We used 2004–2008 ...
Effects of 2000-2050 Global Change on Ozone Air Quality in the United States
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)
We investigate the effects on U.S. ozone air quality from 2000–2050 global changes in climate and anthropogenic emissions of ozone precursors by using a global chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem) driven by meteorological ...
Sensitivity of US Air Quality to Mid-Latitude Cyclone Frequency and Implications of 1980–2006 Climate Change
(Copernicus Publications, 2008)
We show that the frequency of summertime mid-latitude cyclones tracking across eastern North America at 40°–50° N (the southern climatological storm track) is a strong predictor of stagnation and ozone pollution days in ...
