Emission Ratios and Source Identification of VOCs in Moscow in 2019–2020 by Elena Berezina, Konstantin Moiseenko, Anastasia Vasileva, Natalia Pankratova, Andrey Skorokhod, Igor Belikov, Valery Belousov

“…Biogenic ethanol and isoprene were the highest in summer midday but their concentrations were low enough (up to 4 and 0.4 ppbv, respectively) due to small vegetation area around the site. Emission ratios (ERs) for the main ozone precursors—acetaldehyde, ethanol, 1.3-butadiene, isoprene, toluene, and C-8 aromatics—were estimated from two-sided linear regression fits using benzene and CO as tracers for anthropogenic emissions, with spatial and temporal filters being applied to account for the influence of chemistry and local emission sources. …”

Interannual variability of ice cover in the Caspian Sea by Olga Yu. Lavrova, Anna I. Ginzburg, Andrey G. Kostianoy, Tatiana Yu. Bocharova

“…The maximum annual ice cover area, ice freeze onset and melt dates and ice cover duration were determined from satellite remote sensing data, mostly SAR instruments on board the European Space Agency’s satellites, ranging from ERS-2 to the Sentinel-1A, -1B tandem. We propose a new band combination for Sentinel-2 MSI and Landsat-8 OLI that allows better distinguishing ice cover from clouds or land than the standard RGB composites. …”
