Natural, anthropogenic and hydrologic dust sourcesdescription: Dust sources detected from MODIS (Aqua) Deep Blue Level 2 aerosol products are attributed natural (yellow shading), anthropogenic (magenta shading) or hydrologic (blue shading) origin if at least 30% land use (anthropogenic) or 10% ephemeral water bodies (hydrologic) are present.units: % FoO Dust Optical Depth>0.2 resolution: 0.1x0.1 degree (~10km) format: kmz (zip kml file, no need to unzip just open with GoogleEarth) files: Australia, North Africa, South Africa, Middle East, Central-South Asia, East Asia, North America, South America reference: Ginoux et al.

Ozone-temperature statisticsText files containing observed surface
ozone-temperature statistics (Pearson correlation; slope of the best
fit line between ozone and temperature) for each month at EPA CASTNet
site locations over the entire United States as calculated with the
methodology described in Rasmussen et al. (submitted; Atmos.
Environ.) for before
(1988—2002) and after (2002—2009) the eastern U.S. NOx
SIP Call that reduced power plant NOx emissions roughly 50% between
the two time periods.
Columns in the text files read from left to right are: latitude (degrees North), longitude (degrees East), site elevation (meters), Pearson correlation coefficient, slope of the ozone-temperature relationship (ppb ozone per degree Kelvin/ Celsius), standard error of the slope of the ozone-temperature relationship (ppb ozone per degree Kelvin/ Celsius), and the final column contains the number of months used in the calculation of the correlation coefficient and the slope of the ozone-temperature relationship.
