RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Applications of Air Mass Trajectories A1 Pérez Bartolomé, Isidro Alberto A1 Artuso, Florinda A1 Mahmud, Mastura A1 Kulshrestha, Umesh A1 Sánchez Gómez, María Luisa A1 García Pérez, María Ángeles AB Air trajectory calculations are commonly found in a variety of atmospheric analyses. However, most of reported research usually focuses upon the transport of pollutants via trajectory routes and not on the trajectory itself.This paper explores the major areas of research in which air trajectory analyses are applied with an effort to gain deeper insights into the key points which highlight the necessity of such analyses. Ranging from meteorological applications to their links with living beings, air trajectory calculations becomeimportant tool especially when alternative procedures do not seem possible. This reviewcovers the reports published duringlast few years illustrating the geographical distribution of trajectory applications and highlighting the regions where trajectory application research proves most active and useful. As a result, relatively unexplored areas such as microorganism transport are also included, suggesting the possible ways in which successful use of air trajectory research should be extended.
