Atmospheric aerosols affect the Earth's climate in many ways, including acting as the seeds on which cloud droplets form. Since a large fraction of these particles is anthropogenic, the …
Uncertainty in the representation of biomass burning (BB) aerosol composition and optical properties in climate models contributes to a range in modeled aerosol effects on incoming …

Abstract The Comprehensive Air-quality Model with extensions (CAMx) was used to explore the sensitivity of PM 2.5 and O 3 concentrations to four selected meteorological factors: wind …
A recent development in the representation of aerosols in climate models is the realization that some components of organic aerosol (OA), emitted from biomass and biofuel burning …
