Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transboundary transport of air pollution has been a topic of scientific research for several decades and has also been addressed already by environmental policies. However, the importance of air pollution transport on the largest - intercontinental - scales, has been recognized only recently. It was soon found that the meteorological and chemical processes involved in intercontinental pollution transport are distinctly different from those occurring during regional-scale transport, and thus new scientific methodologies are required for their study. In this book, leading scientists review the current state of knowledge in this emerging field of research, providing the reader with a process understanding of global-scale transport and its influence on the atmosphere's chemical composition. Long-range transport of anthropogenic pollution is contrasted with that of pollution produced by natural processes such as dust storms or forest fires. Furthermore, the prospects for international management of intercontinental transport of anthropogenic pollution are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fine particulate (PM2.5) continues to be a major air pollution problem due to its adverse effects on human health and the environment. Recently, the rapid industrialization now taking place in Asia is producing a large and growing quantity of NOX, SO2, CO and other atmospheric emissions. This research is part of the work of project "Intercontinental Transport and Climatic Effects of Air Pollutants" (ICAP) sponsored by U.S. Environment Protection Agency (EPA). It presents modeling and interpretation of the impact of Asian anthropogenic emissions on air quality in the U.S. through long distance transport of Asian air pollutants. In order to better quantify the magnitude and impacts of Asia anthropogenic emission on U.S. air quality caused by intercontinental transport, a 3-D regional air quality model, the EPA Models-3 Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) system has been employed in this study. The model is applied to both baseline simulation of 2001 and the sensitivity simulation in which anthropogenic Asian emissions were turned off. The baseline simulation was evaluated with both surface data over U.S. and aircraft observation over Western Pacific regions. Compared to surface measurement over U.S., over 50% of the simulated PM2.5 concentrations fall within a factor of two of the observations in all seasons except winter. Model evaluation using vertical aircraft data indicates that the model is able to well reproduce the vertical distributions of SO42-, NO3-, NH4+ and CO. Concentrations of all species decrease rapidly with increasing altitude below 6 km, followed by a much slower decrease between 6 and 12 km. Time series analysis indicates that model can place the plume in the right location, but tends to under-predict the peak values of the plume intensity. This study shows that the impact of Asian man-made emissions is persistent throughout the entire year rather than episodic. There also exists a significant seasonal cycle with an April/May maximum (1~1.2 _.
