About
J.L. Marcos is an environmental scientist whose research centers on atmospheric aerosols, air quality, and the transport of pollutants, with a particular focus on the Iberian Peninsula. In a key 2018 study, Marcos analyzed episodes of high fine aerosol loading in north-central Spain during the summer of 2013, disentangling the contributions of long-range transport from Canadian biomass burning and local emissions. This work, which has garnered 9 citations, provided critical insights into how distant wildfire events can significantly impact regional air quality, highlighting the interconnectedness of global pollution sources. By combining observational data with trajectory analysis, Marcos’s research aids in understanding the complex dynamics of aerosol episodes, offering valuable evidence for policymakers and atmospheric scientists working to mitigate health and environmental risks. Their contributions underscore the importance of cross-continental pollutant transport in shaping local air quality, making their work a reference point for studies on biomass burning impacts in Southern Europe.
