Abstract: Atmospheric NO2 is produced by combustion, lightning, and in soil. NO2 affects ozone production and criteria pollutant itself.It also has indirect radiative impacts in the troposphere, since ozone has largest warming effect in upper troposphere. Tropospheric vertical column densities (VCD) of NO2 are available from satellites (GOME, OMI, SCIAMACHY, GOME-2). DISCOVER-AQ and KORUS-AQ aircraft campaigns we reconducted to improve the use of satellites to monitor air quality for public health and ...
