Air pollution interactions with extreme weather and climate: mechanisms and impacts
Air pollution interactions with extreme weather and climate: mechanisms and impacts
Session ID#: 250139
Session Description:
Weather and climate events, such as heat waves, drought, and tropical cyclones, exert high influences on air quality. Meanwhile, two or more weather events may occur simultaneously to form compound extremes, which may exhibit intensified impacts on human health and ecosystem relative to the individual event. This session seeks contributions regarding the mechanistic understanding of the nexus between extreme weather events and air quality, and associated impacts on human health and ecosystem. Abstracts on observations, modeling and projections are all welcome.
