This paper aims to study the characteristics of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from heavy-duty trucks in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region, which is located in Northern China. The multiyear emissions of GHG (CO₂, CH₄ and N₂O) from heavy-duty tru...

The authors of this paper utilized a so-called “programmable thermal dissociation method” to monitor HgCl2 emitted from a coal-fired Florida combustion plant.[...]

This research systematically studied heavy rain that occurred on 5 August 2014 over the southeastern Tibetan Plateau (31°N–35°N, 96°E–103°E) using orbital data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) precipitation radar (PR), the TRMM Mul...

Lightning produces electromagnetic fields and waves in all frequency ranges. In the extremely low frequency (ELF) range below 100 Hz, the global Schumann Resonances (SR) are excited at frequencies of 8 Hz, 14 Hz, 20 Hz, etc. This review is aimed at t...

The goal of the study was to determine the concentrations of submicron particulate matter (PM₁) and of the mercury contained in it (Hg_p) in the air in two teaching rooms in two Polish cities, Gliwice and Warsaw. The levels of atmospheric particulate...

The horizontal electric field at the ground surface in the vicinity of structures hit by lightning flashes is relevant to the safety of human beings and livestock; it determines the touch and step voltages around the structure. This paper uses an app...

Shanghai is the biggest metropolis in China, and its local temperature change is affected not only by global warming but also by urbanization. Integrating the Mann-Kendall test, EMD (Empirical Mode Decomposition), Cross Wavelet Analysis and statistic...

Meteorological conditions are important environmental factors affecting apple quality. To understand the possible impact of climate change on the apple quality of the major producing areas in China and assess the quality of major apple species (e.g.,...

Fundamental properties of multiply charged molecular ions, such as energetics, structure, stability, lifetime and fragmentation dynamics, are relevant to understand and model the behavior of gaseous plasmas as well as ionosphere and astrophysical env...

This paper discusses the aerosol radiative effects involved in the accuracy of shortwave net radiation, $R_{n.sw}$ , with $sw\in$ (400–900) nm, retrieved by the Operational Land Imager (OLI), the new generation sensor of the Landsat mis...

This paper presents the comparison of two CO₂ datasets from the National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES) of Japan and the Atmospheric CO₂ Observations from Space (ACOS) of NASA for three years (2010 to 2012). Both CO₂ datasets are retrieve...

The purpose of this study was to increase our understanding of the gaseous elemental mercury (GEM, Hg°) fluxes between the atmosphere and soils. Moreover, we wanted to quantify the annual GEM flux, identify the controls, and compare the GEM flux to a...
