Ozone production from the 2004 North American boreal fires
We examine the ozone production from boreal forest fires based on a case study of wildfires in Alaska and Canada in summer 2004. The model simulations were performed with the...- publication PDF

Observational characteristics of double tropopauses
Temperature profiles in the extratropics often exhibit multiple tropopauses (as defined using the lapse rate definition). In this work we study the observational characteristics...- publication PDF

New insights into the column CH2O/NO2 ratio as an indicator of near-surface...
Satellite-based measurements of the column CH2O/NO2 ratio have previously been used to estimate near-surface ozone (O-3) sensitivity (i.e., NOx or VOC limited), and the...- publication PDF
