  • Objective Synoptic Weather Classification on Air Pollution during Winter Seasons in Hangzhou

    Jiaqi Zhao, Chenggang Wang
    1-13

    Abstract:

    Using the 2015-2018 Hangzhou city PM2.5, PM10, SO2, CO, NO2 and Omass concentration data, ERA5 reanalysis data and ground observation data, through the PCT classification method, the objective analysis of the winter air pollution weather situation in Hangzhou was obtained. The results showed that the winter air quality concentration in Hangzhou continued to be high from... More

  • Effect of Varying Aerosol Concentrations and Relative Humidity on Visibility and Particle Size Distribution in Urban Atmosphere

    Ummulkhair Abdulkarim, Bello Tijjani
    14-28

    Abstract: Atmospheric aerosol concentrations have been found to change constantly due to the influence of source, winds and human activities over short time periods. This has proved to be a constraint to the study of varied aerosol concentrations in urban atmosphere alongside changing relative humidity and how it affects visibility and aerosol particle size distribution. In... More

  • Long Term Spatio-temporal Variations of Seasonal and Decadal Aridity in India

    Pavan Kumar B, Bhavani Pinjarla, P K Joshi, P S Roy
    29-45

    Abstract: A comprehensive analysis of climate data (1958-2018) is carried out at the national scale in India to assess spatiotemporal variation in aridity. The aridity is analyzed using UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme) Aridity Index (AI), which is the ratio between Precipitation (P) and Potential Evapotranspiration (PET). Freely available Terra-Climate database, P and PET variables, offered... More

  • Kinetics of the Oxidation of Hydrogen Sulfide by Atmospheric Oxygen in an Aqueous Medium

    Deepak Singh Rathore, Vimlesh Kumar Meena, Chandra Pal Singh Chandel, Krishna Swarup Gupta
    46-59

    Article ID: 3465

    Abstract: Hydrogen sulfide is an important acid rain precursor and this led us to investigate the kinetics of its oxidation in aqueous phase by atmospheric oxygen. The kinetics was followed by measuring the depletion of oxygen in a reactor. The reaction was studied under pseudo order conditions with [H2S] in excess. The kinetics followed the rate... More
