Quantifying anomalies of air pollutants in 9 U.S. cities during 2020 due to Covid-19 lockdowns and wildfires based on decadal trends
The COVID-19 pandemic led many state and local governments in the United States to enact lockdowns to control the spread of the virus. These actions led to lower on-road emissions as a significant portion of the workforce began working from home. Here, we examine the concentrations of primary pollutants, nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and carbon monoxide (CO), a secondary pollutant, ozone (O3), and one that is both a primary and secondary pollutant, part…
Impacts of sectoral, regional, species, and day-specific emissions on air pollution and public health in Washington, DC
We present a novel source attribution approach that incorporates satellite data into GEOS-Chem adjoint simulations to characterize the species-specific, regional, and sectoral contributions of daily emissions for 3 air pollutants: fine particulate matter (PM2.5), ozone (O3), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). This approach is implemented for Washington, DC, first for 2011, to identify urban pollution sources, and again for 2016, to examine the pollution…
A fuel-based method for updating mobile source emissions during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing lockdown of many US States resulted in rapid changes to motor vehicle traffic and their associated emissions. This presents a challenge for air quality modelling and forecasting during this period, in that transportation emission inventories need to be updated in near real-time. Here, we update the previously developed fuel-based inventory of vehicle emissions (FIVE) to account for changes due to COVID-19 lockdow…
