Secondary Atmospheric Pollution Formations and Its Precursors

Dear Colleagues,

With the further improvement of air quality, secondary aerosols and O₃ have become the most significant factors affecting the atmospheric environment and with a great impact on human health. In different regions, the formation mechanisms of secondary aerosols and O₃ may vary, necessitating in-depth research. In addition, special meteorological conditions and precursors or pollutants that travel from other regions may also have a significant impact on local air quality. Therefore, we aim to promote the publication of papers focusing on secondary aerosols and O₃ formation mechanisms and transportation in this Special Issue. In particular, this Special Issue invites original research papers and review articles focusing on, but not limited to, the following topics:

1. Exploring the impact of the regional transport of precursors or pollutants on air pollutants.
2. Exploring the impact of precursor concentrations on the formation mechanism of secondary aerosol and O₃.
3. Assessing the impacts of meteorological conditions on the formation of secondary aerosol and O₃.
4. Discussing strategies and interventions for mitigating air pollution and improving air quality.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
