Emerging Asian aerosol patterns

Nature Geoscience volume 12, pages582–584(2019)Cite this article

Subjects

The climate of South and East Asia is affected by anthropogenic aerosols, but the magnitude of the aerosol imprint is not well known. As regional emissions are rapidly changing, potential related climate risks must be quantified.
