The eastern Mediterranean (EM) is one of the regions in the world where elevated
concentrations of primary and secondary gaseous air pollutants have been reported …

The size distribution and chemical composition of aerosol particles during a dust storm in the
eastern Mediterranean are analyzed. The data were obtained from airborne measurements …

Suspended atmospheric particles were collected in Israel in order to identify their nature and
relationships with the major synoptic-scale circulation patterns. The particles were analyzed …

The transport of anthropogenic pollution by desert dust in the Eastern Mediterranean region
was studied by analyzing major and trace element composition, organic species, and Pb …

Abstract A 3-yr dataset (February 2000–November 2002) of 30-min averages for
particulates, visibility, and meteorological data were analyzed to examine the dependence …

Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) induced a lockdown that has resulted in
a sharp reduction in air and motor traffic and industrial activities. This in turn led to a …

Abstract Fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) is a complex mixture of aerosol particles with
varying properties and sources, both local and distant. In areas lacking detailed monitoring …

“High‐ozone days,” defined as days featuring ozone concentrations in excess of 80 ppbv for
at least 2 hours over broad geographical regions, were identified for the years 1997 to 2000 …

Atmospheric dust loads and chemical compositions serve as a key link between global
climate patterns and marine biogeochemical cycles. The primary source of atmospheric dust …

Real-time sampling of ambient particulate matter (PM) in the size range 0.23–10μm and of
carbonaceous matter concentrations has been carried out in a carefully designed field …
