Surface observations for monitoring urban fossil fuel CO2 emissions: Minimum site location requirements for the Los Angeles megacity
[1] The contemporary global carbon cycle is dominated by perturbations from anthropogenic CO2 emissions. One approach to identify, quantify, and monitor anthropogenic emissions is to focus on intensely emitting urban areas. In this study, we compare the ability of different CO2 observing systems to constrain anthropogenic flux estimates in the Los Angeles megacity. We consider different observi...

متن کاملAerosol lidar observations of atmospheric mixing in Los Angeles: Climatology and implications for greenhouse gas observations
Atmospheric observations of greenhouse gases provide essential information on sources and sinks of these key atmospheric constituents. To quantify fluxes from atmospheric observations, representation of transport-especially vertical mixing-is a necessity and often a source of error. We report on remotely sensed profiles of vertical aerosol distribution taken over a 2 year period in Pasadena, Ca...
متن کاملMinimum Data Requirements for Monitoring Seabird Bycatch
The purpose of this paper is to assist the WCPFC to identify data fields that are not currently included in its Regional Observer Program Minimum Standard Data Fields and Instructions (ROP). Collection of these further data may assist in the understanding of fishery impacts on seabirds and in assessing the efficacy of the mitigation measures currently being used. The specific data fields that a...
متن کاملLearning from Los Angeles: transport, urban form, and air quality
Los Angeles is well known around the world as an automobile-oriented low density community, yet recent transportation policies have emphasized greater capital investment in rail transportation than in highways, and recent policies have attempted to discourage automobile usage through transportation demand management. While these policies have accomplished small shifts toward public transport an...
