Direct and indirect effects and feedbacks of biomass burning aerosols over Mainland Southeast Asia and South China in springtime.

Southeast Asia is one of the largest biomass burning (BB) source regions in the world. In order to promote our understanding of BB aerosol characteristics and environmental impacts, this study investigated the emission, composition, evolution, radiative effects, and feedbacks of BB aerosols from Mainland Southeast Asia during 15 March to 15 April 2019 by using an online-coupled regional chemistry/aerosol-climate model RIEMS-Chem. Model results are compared against a variety of ground and vertical observations, indicating a generally good model performance for meteorology, aerosol chemical compositions, and aerosol optical properties.

A compilation and development of spatial and temporal profiles of high-resolution emissions inventory over Thailand.

Thailand, located in Southeast Asia, has both anthropogenic and natural emission sources. It is important to develop an emission information system to provide fundamental data to support emission control strategies and air quality studies. In this research, emissions were compiled for the year 2005.
