Estimates of Annual and Regional Releases of CO2 and Other Trace Gases to the Atmosphere from Fires in the Tropics, Based on the FAO Statistics for the Period 1975–1980

TL;DR: In this article, the authors have shown that CO2, CH4, and N2O are also important greenhouse gases, which have an impact on the global climate (e.g., WMO 1985), and that the concentrations of these gases are currently increasing annually by about 0.4, 1 and 0.25% (WMO 1985).
Journal ArticleDOI

Solar proton events: stratospheric sources of nitric oxide.

TL;DR: It is very important to consider the effect of solar proton events on the temporal and spatial distribution of ozone in the stratosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of particle precipitation events on the neutral and ion chemistry of the middle atmosphere: II. Odd hydrogen

TL;DR: In this paper, a one dimensional time-dependent model of the neutral and ion chemistry of the middle atmosphere has been used to examine the production of odd hydrogen (H, OH, and HO2) during charged particle precipitation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biomass burning as a source of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, methanol, acetone, acetonitrile and hydrogen cyanide

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a novel experimental technique, based on proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry, from measurements of emissions from laboratory scale biomass burning experiments, to estimate the source strengths of several potential HOx producing gases: formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, methanol and acetone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sulfur dioxide in remote oceanic air: Cloud transport of reactive precursors

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present simulations with a two-dimensional "Staubsauger" or "vacuum cleaner" model that combines a photochemical model with a description of vertical transport of trace species by convective clouds within larger synoptic circulations.
