Atmospheric Effects and Spectral Vegetation Indices
A vegetation/atmosphere radiative transfer method is employed to study atmospheric effects in spectral vegetation indices. A one-dimensional turbid medium model of a vegetation canopy that includes specular reflection and the hot spot effect is used to calculate canopy bidirectional reflectance factors. These are then used to specify the lower boundary condition of the atmospheric radiative tra...
متن کاملAtmospheric Effects on Winter SO2 Pollution in Lanzhou China
Lanzhou is one of the most polluted cities in China. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentrations have shown evident seasonal variability. Pollution was generally within the second-level criterion (b0.15mgm) in spring, summer, and fall but wasmuch higher than the second-level criterion and sometimes reaches mid-level pollution (APIN200) in winter. Meteorological conditions (low winds, stable stratificat...
متن کاملEnvironmental Management & Pollution SECONDARY ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTION
4.2 Acid Deposition Acid rain was first identified in the 19th century, when English pharmacist Robert Angus Smith measured high acidity levels in rain falling over industrial regions of England and much lower levels in less-polluted areas near the coast. However, this pattern did not receive sustained attention until biologists began to notice sharp declines in fish populations in lakes in Nor...
متن کاملMeasured spacecraft dynamic effects on atmospheric science instruments
On September 1991, NASA launched the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite. In addition to its atmospheric science mission, spacecraft dynamic effects on science measurements were analyzed. The investigation included two in-flight experiments to determine how each on-board instrument, subsystem and environmental disturbance contributed to the spacecraft dynamic response and how these disturbances...
متن کاملChinese Growth and Atmospheric Pollution:
This paper uses a dynamic CGE model, calibrated to new and detailed Chinese emissions data, to assess two important questions. What can we reasonably expect Chinese emissions trends to look like over the next two decades? Secondly, what would be the appropriate policy interventions to flatten Chinese emissions trajectories and reduce the risk of local, regional, and even global adversity? This ...
