A12B:
Air Pollution, Greenhouse Gases, and Emissions in East Asia and Its Interactions with the World II

Submit an Abstract to this Session Please know the abstract submission deadline has passed. There are no exceptions to this deadline and no new abstracts can be submitted.
You can still search the program to see your colleague�s abstract submissions as well as the sessions submitted for the 2016 Fall Meeting. The final program will be released in early October.


Session ID#: 16078

Session Description:
East Asia, particularly China, is a major source region of air pollutants and greenhouse gases. Recent growth in its emissions, air pollution and greenhouse gases not only has caused dramatic domestic environmental problems, but has also raised concerns of long-range pollution transport and climate change. East Asia is also affected by other world regions via similar mechanisms. However, emissions, pollution and greenhouse gases in this region are still relatively poorly understood. This session will focus on East Asian air pollution, greenhouse gases and emissions and its interactions with other world regions.
