Impacts of Urbanization on Biogenic Emissions and Air Pollutant Deposition

摘要

The impact of future air quality controls is often assessed using photochemical models with projected emissions. In these model projections, land covers are generally presumed to remain constant. The goal of this work is to assess the impact of this assumption of constant land covers on model predicted ozone concentrations, using projected land cover changes in Austin, Texas as a case study.
