This review focuses on the observed characteristics of atmospheric new particle formation
(NPF) in different environments of the global troposphere. After a short introduction, we will …

New particle formation (NPF) represents the first step in the complex processes leading to
formation of cloud condensation nuclei. Newly formed nanoparticles affect human health, air …

Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF) is an important global phenomenon that is
nevertheless sensitive to ambient conditions. According to both observation and theoretical …

China is one of the regions with highest PM 2.5 concentration in the world. In this study, we
review the spatio-temporal distribution of PM 2.5 mass concentration and components in …

New particle formation of liquid or solid nanoparticles from gas-phase precursors is a
decisive process in Earth's atmosphere and is considered one of the largest uncertainties in …

New particle formation (NPF) studies in China were summarized comprehensively in this
paper. NPF frequency, formation rate, and particle growth rate were closely compared …

Intense and frequent new particle formation (NPF) events have been observed in polluted
urban environments, yet the dominant mechanisms are still under debate. To understand the …

Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF) is an important phenomenon in terms of global
particle number concentrations. Here we investigated the frequency of NPF, formation rates …

In terms of the global aerosol particle number load, atmospheric new particle formation
(NPF) dominates over primary emissions. The key for quantifying the importance of …

Investigating sulfate formation processes is important not only for air pollution control but
also for understanding the climate system. Although the mechanisms of secondary sulfate …
