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.

CISESS Consortium Scientist Fangjun Li (South Dakota State University) is a co-author on a new study of space-based measurements of ground NOx in the United States, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres.
