This Review aims to summarize the current understanding of bulk tropospheric aqueous-
phase chemistry. Because a complete review of all developments in this area would be …

The Earth's atmosphere offers a striking contrast with other known planets by its rich organic
composition, which results almost exclusively from the presence of life on the planet. About …

Uncertainty in the representation of biomass burning (BB) aerosol composition and optical
properties in climate models contributes to a range in modeled aerosol effects on incoming …

This paper presents a summary of the work done within the European Union's Seventh
Framework Programme project ECLIPSE (Evaluating the Climate and Air Quality Impacts of …

Oxidation products of monoterpenes and isoprene have a major influence on the global
secondary organic aerosol (SOA) burden and the production of atmospheric nanoparticles …

We report on the AeroCom Phase II direct aerosol effect (DAE) experiment where 16
detailed global aerosol models have been used to simulate the changes in the aerosol …

The climate effects of atmospheric aerosol particles serving as cloud condensation nuclei
(CCN) depend on chemical composition and hygroscopicity, which are highly variable on …

As the atmosphere warms, part of the cloud population shifts from ice and mixed-phase
('cold') to liquid ('warm') clouds. Because warm clouds are more reflective and longer-lived …

This paper evaluates the current status of global modeling of the organic aerosol (OA) in the
troposphere and analyzes the differences between models as well as between models and …

The profound changes in global SO2 emissions over the last decades have affected
atmospheric composition on a regional and global scale with large impact on air quality …
