Rapid intercontinental air pollution transport associated with a meteorological bomb

TL;DR: In this paper, an extraordinary episode in November 2001 is presented, where pollution transport across the North Atlantic took only about one day, and the transport mechanism, termed here an intercontinental pollution express highway because of the high wind speeds, was exceptional, as it involved an explosively generated cyclone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Absorption of Solar Radiation by Atmospheric O4

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the absorption of the oxygen collision complex (O2) leads to a globally averaged clear sky shortwave (SW) heating of about 0.53 W m−2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ground-based imaging differential optical absorption spectroscopy of atmospheric gases.

TL;DR: A compact remote-sensing instrument that permits spatially resolved mapping of atmospheric trace gases by passive differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) is described and the first applications of imaging of the nitrogen dioxide contents of the exhaust plumes of two industrial emitters are presented.
