Book Introduction to Air in California

Download or read book Introduction to Air in California written by David Carle and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2006-10-25 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is air? Why is the sky blue? Why do people react favorably to mountain or sea air? How does desert air differ from the air of California’s Central Valley? How is air pollution affecting plants and animals? This book is a unique guide to the air we breathe in California. More than a natural history guide, it approaches this fascinating topic by recognizing the overwhelming role played by humans in the story of California’s air. In a highly engaging style, David Carle explains daily weather patterns, seasonal climate, characteristic winds, and sky phenomena. He explores air as the gases in our atmosphere, but also considers the aspects of air that influence all of our senses—its taste, smell, feel, and look. The guide discusses California’s history of air quality management, air pollution and its effect on humans and the environment, and the technological and individual measures needed to address these challenges. The book also functions as a handbook for more environmentally conscious living by providing information on alternative energy sources for consumers and tips for cleaner running cars. * Features 80 color photographs, 23 figures, 18 maps * Covers regional differences of topography, weather, and the character of the air in California’s fifteen designated air basins * Includes a field guide to the sky, explaining color and light, clouds and wind, and the nature of flight * Addresses issues surrounding global climate change in California A book in the Californians and Their Environment subseries, dedicated to understanding human influences on the state's ecology and natural resources

Book Air Quality Modeling in California

Download or read book Air Quality Modeling in California written by Jianlin Hu and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new generation of the source-oriented UCD/CIT air quality model was developed and applied to (1) investigate the impacts of diagnostic vs. prognostic meteorological fields on predicted particulate matter (PM) concentrations, (2) quantify the contribution of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from livestock feed to ozone (O3) formation, and (3) estimate primary PM exposure fields from ~900 sources for use in epidemiological studies. Diagnostic meteorological fields produced more accurate air quality predictions than the WRF prognostic fields during the winter episode of the California Regional PM10/PM2.5 Air Quality Study (CRPAQS), suggesting that diagnostic meteorological fields generated by a dense measurement network are the preferred choice for air quality model studies during relatively short stagnation periods in locations with complex topography. VOCs emitted from livestock feed contributed ~3.5 tons of the ground level peak O3 (8-hr average) in the San Joaquin Valley (SJV), and mobile VOC contributed ~12 tons in the 2000 summer episode of the Central California Ozone Study (CCOS). Primary PM0.1, PM1., and PM2.5 concentrations from ~900 sources predicted across California for a 7 year period (2000-06) are in good agreement with measured concentrations for EC and 9 trace elements in the PM2.5 size range and for mass and EC in the PM0.1 size range. Source apportionment results from the mechanistic air quality model are likewise in good agreement with receptor-based source apportionment calculations. The continuous PM0.1 and PM2.5 fields predicted by the source-oriented air quality model provide new information on trace composition and source origin of airborne particulate matter that will support future epidemiological studies for the health effects of air pollution.
