Why do you think your paper is highly cited? 

This paper presents an overview of the NASA TRACE-P tropospheric chemistryDaniel J. Jacob mission that took place in March and April of 2001, originating out of Hong Kong and Japan. TRACE-P used two aircraft to characterize Asian chemical outflow to the northwest Pacific, with the goal of better quantifying Asian chemical emissions and the chemical evolution of Asian pollution. The mission was highly successful and provided a considerable amount of data on a wide range of chemicals including greenhouse gases, ozone and its precursors, aerosols and their precursors, and halocarbons. A large number of papers are now exploiting the TRACE-P data and citing the overview paper.
