The development of reliable anthropogenic emission inventories is essential for both
understanding the sources of air pollution and designing effective air-pollution-control …

Urban air pollution represents one of the greatest environmental challenges facing mankind
in the 21st century. 1, 2 Noticeably, many developing countries, such as China and India …

Abstract Fine particulate matter (PM2. 5, aerodynamic diameter≤ 2.5 µm) impacts the
climate, reduces visibility and severely influences human health. The Indo-Gangetic Plain …

Mercury is a fascinating fluid metal that exists as liquid at 25 C (0 C= 273 K). This silver
colored d-block heavy metal exhibits noble-gas-like characteristics and solidifies at a …

A fully coupled “online” Weather Research and Forecasting/Chemistry (WRF/Chem) model
has been developed. The air quality component of the model is fully consistent with the …

This paper discusses methods for ranking photochemical ozone formation reactivities of
volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Photochemical mechanisms for the atmospheric …

This article describes the governing equations, computational algorithms, and other
components entering into the Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) modeling system …

An updated version of the SAPRC-99 gas-phase atmospheric chemical mechanism,
designated SAPRC-07, is described. The rate constants and reactions have been updated …

A new gas‐phase chemical mechanism for the modeling of regional atmospheric chemistry,
the “Regional Atmospheric Chemistry Mechanism”(RACM) is presented. The mechanism is …

The lumped‐structure approach for condensing organic chemical mechanisms is attractive,
since it yields fewer species and reactions and reduces computational costs. This paper …
