Biosphere-Atmosphere Interactions and Atmospheric Chemistry
Biosphere-Atmosphere Interactions and Atmospheric Chemistry
Session ID#: 73283
Session Description:
The exchange of reactive trace gases and aerosols between the atmosphere and biosphere influences air quality, climate, and ecosystems. This session focuses on improving the understanding of these interactions as well as their broader social and scientific relevance (e.g., with respect to global health and sustainability). In particular, we invite submissions from observational and modeling studies that quantify terrestrial sources and sinks of reactive gas and aerosol species, provide insight into processes driving the exchange, and constrain the influence of biosphere-atmosphere interactions on tropospheric chemistry and ecosystems. We additionally welcome studies developing novel instrumental, modeling, and data application techniques to address emerging challenges in the field.
