The cloud/precipitation features in the Rapid Intensifying TC over NW Pacific from satellite observation

We want to know if there are unique features of deep convective cloud (DCC), rain, and cloud properties that can be used to predict the rapid intensification (RI) of a tropical cyclone. RI can be predicted using DCC in a...

Concurrent Assessment of Personal, Indoor, and Outdoor PM2.5 and PM1 Levels and Source Contributions using Novel Low‐cost Sensing Devices

The intensity, frequency, duration, and contribution of distinct PM2.5 sources in Asian households have seldom been assessed; these are evaluated in this work with concurrent personal, indoor, and outdoor PM2.5 and PM1 m...

Impacts of Air Pollution upon the Forest Environment

In a forest, plants emit a number of highly reactive organic gases into the atmosphere. The major species include isoprene (C5H8), monoterpene (C10H16) and other terpenoids, which are also known as the essential componen...
