TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a methodology for estimating the seasonal and interannual variation of biomass burning designed for use in global chemical transport models, using the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) Aerosol Index (AI) data set.

TL;DR: The tropospheric composition of oxygenated organic species is characterized, using data from a recent airborne survey conducted over the tropical Pacific Ocean, and it is suggested that oxygenated species could be formed via the oxidation of hydrocarbons in the atmosphere, the photochemical degradation of organic matter in the oceans, and direct emissions from terrestrial vegetation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a global three-dimensional model of tropospheric chemistry (GEOS-CHEM) and additional information from in situ observations to interpret the distribution of tropical troposphere ozone columns (TTOCs) from the Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) by using a global 3D model.

TL;DR: The Pacific Exploratory Mission to the Tropics phase B (PEM-Tropics B) aircraft campaign as discussed by the authors surveyed the chemical composition of the Pacific atmosphere from 35°N to 35°S and up to 12 km altitude.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the sources and chemistry affecting nitrogen oxides (NO x = NO + NO 2 ) over the tropical Pacific (30°S-20°N) using observations from the Pacific Exploratory Mission to the Tropics B (PEM-Tropics B) aircraft mission conducted in March-April 1999.
