Schematic diagram of the trade-offs between the implications for regional air quality and global climate change of new policies for management of the atmosphere. In the CalNex 2010 study outlined here, NOAA researchers are studying several issues at the heart of the coupled air quality and climate change problems.

Carbonaceous aerosol particles predominate in the total mass of particles, consisting of a large number of chemical species and can be divided into organic aerosol (OA) and black carbon (BC). The IPCC will adopt and publish its new assessment report ( AR6 Climate Change 2021: The Physical Science Basis ) in early August 2021.

Impacts of heavy metals and persistent organic compounds on human health are also quantified, primarily in terms of additional cancer incidence. Estimating the magnitude of costs associated with future climate change impacts is very uncertain. The damage cost resulting from emitting one kg of organic micro-pollutants (e.g.

Compared with burning coal, natural gas emits about half the carbon dioxide and substantially less soot, mercury and sulfur. The Natural Gas Initiative has begun funding early stage, exploratory research, following a “seed grant” model used by Stanford’s Precourt Institute for Energy, one of NGI’s hosting organizations.
