Abstract:
The impacts of transported and locally-produced pollutants on western US air quality during summer 2008 are studied using the multi-scale Sulfur Transport and Deposition Modeling system. Transported background (TBG) is an indicator of the influences from extra-regional emissions or the lower stratosphere. The magnitude of TBG is expected to increase as the emissions from international sources grow. This trend is especially important in the context of US air quality standards, which tend to become more stringent to protect

Abstract:
The work presented in this thesis document reflects the results of a study carried out to better quantify the magnitude and fate of the anthropogenic air pollutants emitted from East Asia. Simulations of anthropogenic sulfur compounds by a regional on-line coupled chemistry-climate model suggest that large portions of East Asia have high SOx concentrations, and most subregions within East Asia are net exporters of SOx (SO2+SO4) (i.e. the anthropogenic S emissions from the region are greater than the deposition to the region). Among them, China is responsible for ~ 85% of the total emission

Abstract:
Nitric oxide (NO) is a minor species in the Earth’s atmosphere whose densities have been measured to closely reflect solar energy deposition above 100 km. It is an efficient emitter in the infrared where the thermosphere is optically thin, and serves as an important source of radiative cooling between 100 - 200 km. The primary mechanism of this cooling involves the conversion of kinetic energy from the background atmosphere into vibrational energy in NO, followed by the radiative de-excitation of the NO molecule. This results in the production of a 5.3 µm photon which escapes the thermosphere
