A42F:
Tropospheric Chemistry-Climate-Biosphere Interactions II


Session ID#: 10711

Session Description:
Tropospheric ozone, aerosols, and other short-lived pollutants contribute to climate change on both regional and global scales. Climate change and variability, in turn, impact means and extremes of these pollutants since their transport and chemistry are sensitive to meteorology. We solicit field, lab, space-based and modeling studies that illuminate interactions between tropospheric chemistry and climate or quantify uncertainties in these feedbacks. Sample topics: 1) air quality in a changing climate; 2) direct and indirect effects of short-lived species on climate, including effects mediated by the biosphere; 3) paleo records of atmospheric chemistry; and 4) policy-relevant aspects of chemistry-climate interactions.
