Climate Change and Air Pollution

Over the last decade, the awareness that air quality and climate change are related in many ways has substantially increased. However, there is still a need for new evidence, both experimental and theoretical, at different scales: from city to regional levels as well as at continental and global scales. This Special Issue aims to collect all kinds of studies that address the multiple links between air quality and climate change, such as statistical studies based on analysis of pollution concentrations and weather and climate indicators; impact studies that show adverse impacts on human health and ecosystems; studies that investigate the tradeoffs and co-benefits that may be gained from reducing anthropogenic emissions, including short- and long-lived GHGs; studies regarding vegetation/nature-based solution (NBS) impacts on atmosphere; articles regarding integrated policies and practices; etc.
