8 Entropy Production of Atmospheric Heat Transport
We examine the rate of entropy produced by the atmospheric general circulation and the hypothesis that it adjusts itself towards a macroscopic state... -
Anthropogenic warming degrades spring air quality in Northeast Asia by enhancing atmospheric stability and transboundary transport
Air pollutants can travel long distances from their sources, often causing severe particulate matter (PM) pollution in downwind regions. This...
