Atmospheric Environment is the international journal for scientists and researchers in different disciplines interested in air pollution and its societal impacts. The journal publishes papers on the consequences of natural and human-induced perturbations to the earth's atmospheres, including processes involving chemistry and physics of the atmosphere as well as subjects related to human health, welfare, climate change, and environmental policy. Atmospheric Environment publishes original research and review articles, special issues, supplements, and New Directions columns. Papers should be novel and results based and present scientific methods involving atmospheric observations, modeling, and analysis extending from local to global scales.Key topics for stand-alone papers and special issues:-Innovative air quality observations including space based remote sensingAnthropogenic/biogenic emissions and inventoriesBiospheric-atmospheric exchange and depositionModeling and analysisAir pollution - climate change interactionsRadiative effects of aerosols, clouds, and albedo changesHealth and welfare effects associated with pollution exposure in a changing global environmentIndoor air pollutionEnvironmental policy and regulatory impactsField campaigns and laboratory studies of atmospheric physical, chemical, and radiative processesOur scope is broad, but Atmospheric Environment has air pollution as its core theme. We have to maintain this tradition, while attracting high quality papers of sufficient novelty to contribute to science and its implications for policy. Three fundamental questions help the Editors in reaching a decision on whether to send a paper out for review:1. Scope - is the work directly or explicitly related to air pollution and has it been prepared or framed in such a way?2. Novelty - does the work provide something new (new method, new results) or does it add significantly to the literature of air pollution science?3. Quality - does the work suffer from obvious quality problems, problems in method (e.g. insufficient sample size) or writing style etc.We try to be flexible with novel papers on air pollution issues even if they don't have atmospheric measurements (e.g. wind tunnel studies, dynamometer studies, remote sensing retrieval etc). However, we are still cautious of purely mathematical derivations, preliminary results or case studies, making sure that these represent substantial contributions to the science of Air Pollution before sending them for review. Air pollution should also feature in manuscripts that lie at the margins of our scope e.g. agriculture, meteorology, climatology, building comfort, carbon footprint, physiology, noise, engineering, occupational hygiene, meteorological visibility, heating and ventilation etcBenefits to authors:-We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Atmospheric Pollution Research (APR) is an international journal designed for the publication of articles on air pollution. Papers should present novel experimental results, theory and modeling of air pollution on local, regional, or global scales. Areas covered are research on inorganic, organic, and persistent organic air pollutants, air quality monitoring, air quality management, atmospheric dispersion and transport, air-surface (soil, water, and vegetation) exchange of pollutants, dry and wet deposition, indoor air quality, exposure assessment, health effects, satellite measurements, natural emissions, atmospheric chemistry, greenhouse gases, and effects on climate change.

Atmospheric Pollution Research publishes:

• Research Papers, Technical Notes, and Short Communications
• Critical Literature Reviews, mainly on new emerging areas of atmospheric science
• Special issues on relevant topics

The journal publishes scientific papers (research papers, review articles, letters and notes) dealing with the part of the atmosphere where meteorological events occur. Attention is given to all processes extending from the earth surface to the tropopause, but special emphasis continues to be devoted to the physics of clouds and precipitation, i.e. atmospheric aerosols; microphysical processes; cloud dynamics and thermodynamics; numerical simulation of cloud processes; clouds and radiation; meso- and macrostructure of clouds and cloud systems, and weather modification.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
