Effects of 2000-2050 Global Change on Ozone Air Quality in the United States

Wu, Shiliang; Mickley, Loretta J.; Leibensperger, Eric Michael; Jacob, Daniel J.; Rind, David; Streets, David G. (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 ...

Effect of Changes in Climate and Emissions on Future Sulfate-Nitrate-Ammonium Aerosol Levels in the United States

Pye, H.O.T.; Liao, H.; Wu, S.; Mickley, Loretta J.; Jacob, Daniel J.; Henze, Daven K.; Seinfeld, J.H. (American Geophysical Union, 2009)

Global simulations of sulfate, nitrate, and ammonium aerosols are performed for the present day and 2050 using the chemical transport model GEOS-Chem. Changes in climate and emissions projected by the IPCC A1B scenario are ...

Sensitivity of US Air Quality to Mid-Latitude Cyclone Frequency and Implications of 1980–2006 Climate Change

Leibensperger, Eric Michael; Mickley, Loretta J.; Jacob, Daniel J. (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 ...

Effects of 2000–2050 Changes in Climate and Emissions on Global Tropospheric Ozone and the Policy-Relevant Background Surface Ozone in the United States

Wu, Shiliang; Mickley, Loretta J.; Jacob, Daniel J.; Rind, David; Streets, David G. (American Geophysical Union, 2008)

We use a global chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem) driven by a general circulation model (NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies GCM) to investigate the effects of 2000–2050 global change in climate and emissions (the ...

Why Are There Large Differences Between Models in Global Budgets of Tropospheric Ozone?

Wu, Shiliang; Mickley, Loretta J.; Jacob, Daniel J.; Logan, Jennifer A.; Yantosca, Robert M.; Rind, David Michael (American Geophysical Union, 2007)

Global 3-D tropospheric chemistry models in the literature show large differences in global budget terms for tropospheric ozone. The ozone production rate in the troposphere, P(O x ), varies from 2300 to 5300 Tg yr−1 across ...

A Preliminary Synthesis of Modeled Climate Change Impacts on U.S. Regional Ozone Concentrations

Weaver, C. P.; Cooter, E.; Gilliam, R.; Gilliland, A.; Grambsch, A.; Grano, D.; Hemming, B.; Hunt, S. W.; Nolte, C.; Winner, D. A.; Liang, X-Z.; Zhu, J.; Caughey, M.; Kunkel, K.; Lin, J-T.; Tao, Z.; Williams, A.; Wuebbles, D. J.; Adams, P. J.; Dawson, J. P.; Amar, P.; He, S.; Avise, J.; Chen, J.; Cohen, R. C.; Goldstein, A. H.; Harley, R. A.; Steiner, A. L.; Tonse, S.; Guenther, A.; Lamarque, J-F.; Wiedinmyer, C.; Gustafson, W. I.; Leung, L. R.; Hogrefe, C.; Huang, H-C.; Jacob, Daniel James; Mickley, Loretta J.; Wu, S.; Kinney, P. L.; Lamb, B.; Larkin, N. K.; McKenzie, D.; Liao, K-J.; Manomaiphiboon, K.; Russell, A. G.; Tagaris, E.; Lynn, B. H.; Mass, C.; Salathé, E.; O, S. M.; Pandis, S. N.; Racherla, P. N.; Rosenzweig, C.; Woo, J-H. (American Meteorological Society, 2009)

This paper provides a synthesis of results that have emerged from recent modeling studies of the potential sensitivity of U.S. regional ozone (O3) concentrations to global climate change (ca. 2050). This research has been ...

Uncertainty in preindustrial abundance of tropospheric ozone: Implications for radiative forcing calculations

Mickley, Loretta J.; Jacob, Daniel James; Rind, David Michael (Wiley-Blackwell, 2001)

Recent model calculations of the global mean radiative forcing from tropospheric ozone since preindustrial times fall in a relatively narrow range, from 0.3 to 0.5 W m−2. These calculations use preindustrial ozone fields ...

Effects of future climate change on regional air pollution episodes in the United States

Mickley, Loretta J.; Jacob, Daniel James; Field, B; Rind, David Michael (Wiley-Blackwell, 2004)

We examine the impact of future climate change on regional air pollution meteorology in the United States by conducting a transient climate change (1950–2052) simulation in a general circulation model (GCM) of the Goddard ...

Interactions between tropospheric chemistry and aerosols in a unified general circulation model

Liao, Hong; Adams, Peter; Chung, Serena; Seinfeld, John; Mickley, Loretta J.; Jacob, Daniel James (Wiley-Blackwell, 2003)

A unified tropospheric chemistry-aerosol model has been developed within the Goddard Institute for Space Studies general circulation model (GCM). The model includes a detailed simulation of tropospheric ozone-NOx-hydrocarbon ...

Radiative forcing in the 21st century due to ozone changes in the troposphere and the lower stratosphere

Gauss, M.; Myhr, G; Pitari, G; Prather, M.J.; Isaksen, I; Berntsen, T; Brasseur, G; Dentener, F; Derwent, R; Hauglustaine, D; Horowitz, L; Jacob, Daniel James; Johnson, M; Law, K; Mickley, Loretta J.; Müller, J; Plantevin, P; Pyle, J; Rogers, H; Stevenson, D; Sundet, J; van Weele, M; Wild, O (Wiley-Blackwell, 2003)

Radiative forcing due to changes in ozone is expected for the 21st century. An assessment on changes in the tropospheric oxidative state through a model intercomparison (“OxComp”) was conducted for the IPCC Third Assessment ...
