CISESS Consortium Scientists Patrick Campbell, Daniel Tong, Youhua Tang (GMU) and coauthors discuss multi-decadal fire activity and how it influences changes in reactive nitrogen emissions across the contiguous United States in their paper recently published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment.

CISESS Scientists Kai Yang (AOSC), Zachary Moon and colleagues have created a generalized global configuration to NOAA’s official Unified Forecasting System (UFS) to better simulate the full tropospheric and stratospheric chemistry needed for global air quality applications. The new Configurable ATmospheric Chemistry (CATChem) library and modeling component is described in their paper published in the Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems.
