Modeling of chemical tracer transport in the atmospheric environment and its impact on the global climate

Continental regions are experiencing rapid environmental changes due to expansion of industrial activities and land uses in different types of agricultural productions, burning of fossil fuels, etc., which lead to the emanation of huge amount of smog aerosol particulates and chemicals in the atmosphere. Information about these chemical tracers has been found from Indian Ocean Experiment (INDOEX), Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) assessment reports as well as from other sources. The results of these computations may be interpreted by the chemical tracer transport model. In this paper, we have used a global atmospheric model in which the optical properties and the concentrations of the chemical tracers and aerosols have been incorporated. The aerosols and chemicals are transported in the atmospheric environment by the model cumulus convection and through the model semi-Lagrangian advection process . Thus, they are globally distributed along with the wind flow. The model has been used in studying the impact of the tropospheric chemical perturbations on the global environment.
