Canada took down the United States at Davos, leading the way for others to confront the US threat:

"You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination."

This is the beginning of the end of the US.

A nitrate photolysis source of tropospheric HONO is incompatible with current understanding of atmospheric chemistry Abstract. Recent observations of nitrous acid (HONO) in the remote troposphere show much higher concentrations than can be explained through known sources, with important implications for air quality ...

Application deadline approaching!

Until 8th January one can apply to this PhD project on multiphase chemistry and tropospheric ozone.

NOx-recycling, halogen or iron or VOC involving cloud droplets and aerosols. All topics you will be welcome to investigate in this PhD project!

This is very bad news. For our NCAR colleagues of course, for climate scientists everywhere, and really, for everyone. I had the good fortune to spend two years at the Mesa Lab as an ASP postdoc, and it was one of the best scientific environments I have known.

How non-equilibrium aerosol chemistry impacts particle acidity: the GMXe AERosol CHEMistry (GMXe–AERCHEM, v1.0) sub-submodel of MESSy Abstract. Aqueous-phase chemical processes in clouds, fog, and deliquescent aerosols are known to alter atmospheric composition and acidity significantly. Traditionally, global and regional models pre...

Our answer will be multiphase sources and sinks of ozone precursors.

Our chief tool is a global model with explicit kinetic model for cloud droplets and deliquescent aerosols

Optimized step size control within the Rosenbrock solvers for stiff chemical ordinary differential equation systems in KPP version 2.2.3_rs4 Abstract. Numerical integration of multiphase chemical kinetics in atmospheric models is challenging. The underlying system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is stiff and thus difficult to sol...

Chemistry-Climate simulations and air quality forecasts are computationally expensive.
In our latest publication we show that models using KPP can be much faster without any loss in accuracy.

How 'Don't Look Up' Powerfully Exposed the Absurdity of Climate Inaction Filmmaker Adam McKay discusses the reaction to 'Don't Look Up,' the 2021 film which used satire to demonstrate the madness of our political response to the climate crisis and the media's role in…

Few cultural products make lasting impact. But Don’t Look Up was one of the few, as evidenced by how much conversation it still generates.

Great retrospective on the film's release & why it's reassuring that it remains so loathed by those it ridiculed.

Atmospheric chemistry calculations are very expensive. This work on efficient time-stepping has been a long time waiting to see the light. I am very happy Raphael Dreger @fz-juelich.de made the investigation and evaluation. Manuscript now for public discussion gmd.copernicus.org/preprints/gm...

Today I will be crossing this year-round air pollution hot spot. I will certainly smell wood smoke and ammonia. How long will this situation persist? Stopping burning wood for heating and eating meat would help greatly...

I think the second is the better translation of the English version. "I.A" should be "I.A." .

Very interesting and difficult questions at the same time! Recently, I got fascinated by the views Romans had on time expressed in the myth of the god of space and time Janus.

The real solution is to reduce direct GHGs emissions by consuming less of everything.

Since the first time I heard about carbon credits I was sure these are a Trojan horse for corruption and fraud with green washing. Even my colleagues (scientists) wash their conscience by buying CO2 offsets when they fly many times a year to conferences and project meetings.

At least billon💶€ climate fraud. When Germany tries to "reduce" emissions by buying #carbon certificates without proper in-situ auditory. Could be the same with #geoengeneering projects if allowed to trade the illusion of doing something for the #climate, just distraction for profit. 🧪🌎 17min📽️👇🏽

I am surprised it is a surprise for non-Italians because for Italians it is not strange. Until a few years ago the firefighters were almost or partly military people ... maybe for a reason?

I guess the large non-stomatal sink is introduced in the model by saying that the leaves are to a degree wet (fwet) depending on relative humidity and not on rain/dew as originally in Wesely. fwet is not from peer-review literature but maybe this does the trick also with the big-leaf approach.

So It is not chemistry and ozone disappears somehow on leaf cuticles? Hard to say it is not chemistry as well.
