Journal ArticleDOI

Tropospheric chemical composition measurements in Brazil during the dry season

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrated the large importance of the continental tropics in global air chemistry and explained why CO is present in such high concentrations in the boundary layer of the tropical forest.
Journal ArticleDOI

Model study indicating halogen activation and ozone destruction in polluted air masses transported to the sea

TL;DR: In this paper, a quasi-size-dependent approach was used to obtain mean values of those aerosol properties that depend on the droplet radii, and a residence time of 2 days was assumed for the return of the aerosol particles to the sea surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimates on the production of CO and H2 from the oxidation of hydrocarbon emissions from vegetation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived from extensive field measurements on foliar emissions in the U.S. approximate global inputs of isoprene and terpenes of 3.5 times 10 to 14th power and 4.8 times 10-14th power g(C)/yr, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

How Long Have We Been in the Anthropocene Era

TL;DR: Ruddiman et al. as discussed by the authors argued that land exploitation for agriculture and animal husbandry may have led to enhanced emissions of CO2 and CH4 to the atmosphere, thereby modifying the expected changes in the concentrations of these gases beyond those expected from variations in the Milankovich orbital parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acetone in the atmosphere: Distribution, sources, and sinks

TL;DR: In this paper, the dominant nonmethane organic species present in the atmosphere sampled primarily over eastern Canada (0-6 km, 35 deg-65 deg N) during ABLE3B (July to August 1990) was measured.
