Abstract:
This dissertation presents a geographical analysis of air pollution in the Tucson region. Image processing, geographic information system (GIS), climatological, and statistical tools are used to develop and analyze air pollution-related databases. These databases are then used in conjunction with a limited number of spatial measurements of ozone concentrations to create accurate and theoretically sound ground-level ozone maps. High spatial resolution, gridded, multi-temporal, atmospheric emissions inventories (EIs) of ozone precursor chemical (i.e. volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitroge

Abstract:
Measuring the composition of the planetary boundary layer is essential for monitoring pollutants and for understanding their impact on environment and health. Nadir satellite remote sensing is particularly appealing to sound this part of the atmosphere, but is however challenging because pollutants concentrations are generally weak and confined in a small part of the atmospheric column. Among the sounders currently in orbit, those operating in the thermal infrared have usually their maximum sensitivity in the mid-troposphere, and are thought to be inadequate to measure the near-surface atmosph

Abstract:
A major opportunity for using satellite observations of tropospheric chemical concentrations is to improve our scientific understanding of atmospheric processes by integrated analysis of satellite, aircraft, and ground-based observations with global and regional scale models. One endpoint of such efforts is to reduce modeling biases and uncertainties. The idea of coupling these observations with a regional scale air quality model was the starting point of this research. The overall objective of this research was to improve the NOₓ emission inventories by integrating observations from different

Abstract:
On-road remote sensing has the ability to operate in real-time, and under real world conditions, making it an ideal candidate for detecting gross polluters on major freeways and thoroughfares. In this study, remote sensing was employed to detect carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), and nitrogen oxide (NO). On-road remote sensing data taken from measurements performed in six states, (Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Texas, and Utah) were cleaned and analyzed. Data mining and exploration were first undertaken in order to search for relationships among variables such as make, year, en

Este trabalho tem como foco o entendimento das propriedades ópticas do aerossol na Amazônia utilizando várias técnicas: sensoriamento remoto em solo, sensoriamento remoto por satélites e medidas in situ. Propriedades ópticas medidas continuamente ao longo de mais de 15 anos pela rede AERONET na Amazônia foram analisadas buscando compreender como os eventos anuais de queima de biomassa e as emissões urbanas de Manaus afetam as propriedades das partículas. Medidas de longo prazo do sensor MODIS utilizando o sistema Giovanni da NASA foram úteis para caracterizar o impacto da pluma urbana de Manau

Abstract:
The atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) is the layer of air directly influenced by the Earth’s surface and is the layer of the atmosphere most important to humans as this is the air we live in. Methods for measuring the properties of the ABL include three general approaches: satellite-based, ground- based and airborne. A major research challenge is that many contemporary methods provide a restricted spatial resolution or coverage of variations of ABL properties such as how wind speed varies across a landscape with complex topography. To enhance our capacity to measure the properties of the ABL, t

Abstract:
Atmospheric formaldehyde (H2CO) is an intermediate product common to the degradation of many volatile organic compounds and therefore it is a central component of the tropospheric chemistry. While the global formaldehyde background is due to methane oxidation, emissions of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) from biogenic, biomass burning and anthropogenic continental sources result in important and localised enhancements of the H2CO concentration. Recent spaceborne nadir sensors provide an opportunity to quantify the abundance of tropospheric formaldehyde at the global scale, and
