24 maj 2022 · Absorbing aerosols can interact with clouds through the semi-direct effect, which refers to the heating of the ambient atmosphere, changing the temperature profile 13,34. The sign of this...
9 lis 2023 · Due to human activities, atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations have increased dramatically since around 1750, causing the climate to warm in the last few hundred years.
1 paź 2021 · Fine particulate matter in the atmosphere can absorb and re-emit thermal radiation under resonance conditions at long wavelengths and thereby warm the atmosphere, according to an analysis of ...
15 lip 2024 · Aerosols can influence the vertical distribution of temperature in the atmosphere. Aerosol-induced heating or cooling at specific altitudes can alter the lapse rate—the rate at which temperature changes with altitude. Changes in the lapse rate can affect the stability of the atmosphere and modify vertical temperature gradients.
20 lip 2024 · In tropical zones, where temperature and biological activity are higher, the decomposition of organic matter is accelerated, leading to increased CO 2 emissions. Wetlands and other water-rich ecosystems common in the tropics release CH 4 due to methanogenesis, which occurs under low oxygen conditions.
6 mar 2023 · Light-absorbing aerosols affect atmospheric radiation, dynamics, and precipitations through shortwave absorption in the atmosphere and snowpack. Black carbon (BC) is considered the most significant contributor to global shortwave absorption among all the known light-absorbing aerosol components.
25 cze 2019 · Newly formed nanoparticles affect human health, air quality, weather, and climate. This review provides a brief history, synthesizes recent significant progresses, and outlines the challenges and future directions for research relevant to NPF.
