MIT researchers build model simulating atmospheric transport of PAHs; how chemicals get to the Arctic

SEPTEMBER 11, 2012

MIT researchers have built a model to simulate long-range atmospheric transport of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). GEOS-Chem captures observed seasonal trends with no statistically significant difference between simulated and measured mean annual concentrations.

Researchers at MIT, led by Prof. Ceder leads the CEDER (Computational and Experimental Design of Emerging materials Research group) at MIT, and has been pushing for the realization of the “Materials Genome” project to bring advanced automated computing environments coupled to databases to materials design.

Second, we show that the efficient acetoclastic pathway in Methanosarcina emerged at a time statistically indistinguishable from the extinction. Other proposals suggest secondary effects of the volcanism—such as raging coal fires—as the mechanism.
