Mineral dust aerosol is one of the major types of aerosol present in the troposphere. The
molecular level interactions of water vapor with mineral dust are of global significance …

We review the major features of desert dust outbreaks that are relevant to the assessment of
dust impacts upon human health. Our ultimate goal is to provide scientific guidance for the …

Exposure to outdoor fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) is a leading risk factor for mortality. We
develop global estimates of annual PM2. 5 concentrations and trends for 1998–2018 using …

An accurate fine-resolution surface of the chemical composition of fine particulate matter
(PM2. 5) would offer valuable information for epidemiological studies and health impact …

We estimated global fine particulate matter (PM2. 5) concentrations using information from
satellite-, simulation-and monitor-based sources by applying a Geographically Weighted …

Atmospheric ozone (O3) is a pollutant produced through chemical chain reactions where
volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon monoxide and methane are oxidized in the …

Atmospheric deposition of inorganic nitrogen is critical to the function of ecosystems and
elemental cycles. During the industrial period, humans have doubled the amount of …

Ambient air pollution is the leading environmental health risk factor globally, resulting in
nearly 3.5 million premature deaths in 2017 from stroke, ischemic heart disease, chronic …

Desert dust aerosols affect Earth's global energy balance through direct interactions with
radiation, and through indirect interactions with clouds and ecosystems. But the magnitudes …

Reducing CO2 emissions from fossil fuel-and biomass-fired power plants often also reduces
air pollution, benefitting both climate and public health. Here, we examine the relationship of …
