Almost all remote sensing atmospheric PM2.5 estimation methods need satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD) products, which are often retrieved from top-of-atmosphere (TOA) reflectance via an atmospheric radiative transfer model. Then, is it possible to estimate ground-level PM2.5 directly from satellite TOA reflectance without a physical model? In this study, this challenging work are achieved based on a machine learning model. Specifically, we establish the relationship between PM2.5, satellite TOA reflectance, observation angles, and meteorological factors in a deep learning architecture (denoted as Ref-PM modeling). Taking the Wuhan Urban Agglomeration (WUA) as a case study, the results demonstrate that compared with the AOD-PM modeling, the Ref-PM modeling obtains a competitive performance, with out-of-sample cross-validated R2 and RMSE values of 0.87 and 9.89 ug/m3 respectively. Also, the TOA-reflectance-derived PM2.5 have a finer resolution and larger spatial coverage than the AOD-derived PM2.5. This work updates the traditional cognition of remote sensing PM2.5 estimation and has the potential to promote the application in atmospheric environmental monitoring.

Eddy saturation describes the nonlinear mechanism in geophysical flows whereby, when average conditions are considered, direct forcing of the zonal flow increases the eddy kinetic energy, while the energy associated with the zonal flow does not incre
ase. Here we present a minimal baroclinic model that exhibits complete eddy saturation. Starting from Phillips classical quasi-geostrophic two-level model on the beta channel of the mid-latitudes, we derive a reduced order model comprising of six ordinary differential equations including parameterised eddies. This model features two physically realisable steady state solutions, one a purely zonal flow and one where, additionally, finite eddy motions are present. As the baroclinic forcing in the form of diabatic heating is increased, the zonal solution loses stability and the eddy solution becomes attracting. After this bifurcation, the zonal components of the solution are independent of the baroclinic forcing, and the excess of heat in the low latitudes is efficiently transported northwards by finite eddies, in the spirit of baroclinic adjustment.
Since the late 19th century, several investigators have estimated the mass of the atmosphere. Unlike previous studies, which focus on the average pressures on the earths surface, this analysis uses the density of air above the earths surface to predi
ct the mass of the atmosphere. Results are consistent with recent pressure-based estimates. They indicate that changes in the latest estimates can be attributed to improved land elevation measurements between 1 km and 3 km. This work also provides estimates of atmospheric mass by layer and mean and median land elevations.
Two years of satellite observations were used to estimate the methane emission from coal mines in Queensland, the largest coal-producing state in Australia. The six analyzed surface and underground coal mines are estimated to emit 570+/-98 Gg a-1 in
2018-2019. Together, they account for 7% of the national coal production, while emitting 55+/-10% of the reported methane emission from coal mining in Australia. Most remarkably, 40% of the quantified emission came from a single surface mine (Hail Creek). While surface coal mining is generally assumed to be a relatively minor source of methane, this suggests we may have to rethink its importance in the global methane budget. Our findings call for increased monitoring and investment in methane recovery technologies for both surface and underground mines. Our results indicate that for two of the three locations our satellite-based estimates are significantly higher than reported to the Australian government.
Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a greenhouse gas which can absorb heat and make the weather even hotter during extreme heatwaves. Besides, it is an influential ground-level air pollutant which can severely damage the environment. Thus evaluating the impor
tance of various factors related to the O3 formation process is essential. However, O3 simulated by the available climate models exhibits large variance in different places, indicating the insufficiency of models in explaining the O3 formation process correctly. In this paper, we aim to identify and understand the impact of various factors on O3 formation and predict the O3 concentrations under different pollution-reduced and climate change scenarios. We employ six supervised methods to estimate the observed O3 using fourteen meteorological and chemical variables. We find that the deep neural network (DNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM) based models can predict O3 concentrations accurately. We also demonstrate the importance of several variables in this prediction task. The results suggest that while Nitrogen Oxides negatively contributes to predicting O3, solar radiation makes a significantly positive contribution. Furthermore, we apply our two best models on O3 prediction under different global warming and pollution reduction scenarios to improve the policy-making decisions in the O3 reduction.
A deep learning approach based on big data is proposed to locate broadband acoustic sources using a single hydrophone in ocean waveguides with uncertain bottom parameters. Several 50-layer residual neural networks, trained on a huge number of sound f
ield replicas generated by an acoustic propagation model, are used to handle the bottom uncertainty in source localization. A two-step training strategy is presented to improve the training of the deep models. First, the range is discretized in a coarse (5 km) grid. Subsequently, the source range within the selected interval and source depth are discretized on a finer (0.1 km and 2 m) grid. The deep learning methods were demonstrated for simulated magnitude-only multi-frequency data in uncertain environments. Experimental data from the China Yellow Sea also validated the approach.
