Global chemistry–climate models (CCMs) play an important role in assessing the climate and air pollution implications of aerosols and chemically reactive gases.
Global chemistry–climate models (CCMs) play an important role in assessing the climate and air pollution implications of aerosols and chemically reactive gases.
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a naturally occurring atmospheric trace gas, a regulated pollutant, and one of the main components determining the oxidative capacity of the atmosphere. Evaluating climate…
The decrease of atmospheric CO2 concentration recorded in Antarctic ice around 1600 AD is one of the mostsignificant atmospheric changes to have occurred during the last millennia, before the onset of the industrial period.Together with the temperature decrease…
The 2012 ozone hole was one of the smallest since the late 1980fs due to a warmer than normal mid]lower … stratosphere over the Antarctic region this year. The development and recovery of the 2012 ozone hole will … be shown via a set of metrics based on the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI)…
We present measurements and analysis of the isotopic composition (ä15Nbulk, ä15Ná, ä15Nâ, and ä18O) of nitrous oxide in 50 samples of tropospheric air collected at Cape Grim, Tasmania between 1978 and 2005 and in 11 samples of firn air from Law Dome, Antarctica…
Studies of atmospheric composition in the Southern Ocean and Antarctic region continue to … reveal new findings which have a wide relevance. This presentation will show and interpret … records of the major greenhouse and related trace species from a network of measurement … sites across the region…
New measurements of atmospheric greenhouse gas … concentrations in ice from Law Dome, Antarctica reproduce … published Law Dome CO2 and CH4 records, extend them … back to 2000 years BP, and include N2O. They have very … high air age resolution, data density and measurement … precision.
Measurements of atmospheric trace gas composition from times before reliable direct observations began in the late 20th century come from air enclosed in polar ice and firn. This presentation will review the evidence for changes in atmospheric CO2…
We report a 2000-year Antarctic ice-core record of stable carbon isotope measurements in atmospheric methane (ä13CH4). Large ä13CH4 variations indicate that the methane budget varied unexpectedly during the late preindustrial Holocene (circa 0 to 1700 A.D.). During the first thousand years…
The firn air "archive" enables reconstruction of atmospheric composition through the past century when many … significant changes occurred in the global atmosphere.
High precision multispecies trace gas measurements of Law Dome ice have been produced for the last 2000 years. The new records of CO2 and CH4 compare very well with the published Law Dome records of the last 1000 years. The new measurements are used to confirm the changes observed in these records…
