Anthropogenic emissions and land use changes have modified atmospheric aerosol
concentrations and size distributions over time. Understanding preindustrial conditions and …

Hygroscopicity is one of the most important physicochemical properties of aerosol particles
and also plays indispensable roles in many other scientific and technical fields. A myriad of …

Tropical, temperate, and boreal forests are critical components of the climate system, and
the ecosystem services they provide are essential for our society (Bona n et al., 1992, Bonan …

Anthropogenic emissions such as NO x and SO 2 influence the biogenic secondary organic
aerosol (SOA) formation, but detailed mechanisms and effects are still elusive. We studied …

The terrestrial vegetation emits large amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOC) into the
atmosphere, which on oxidation produce secondary organic aerosol (SOA). By acting as …

Organosulfates are formed in the atmosphere from reactions between reactive organic
compounds (such as oxidation products of isoprene) and acidic sulfate aerosol. Here we …

Pollen grains emitted from vegetation can release subpollen particles (SPPs) that contribute
to the fine fraction of atmospheric aerosols and may act as cloud condensation nuclei …

There is evidence that black carbon (BC) particles may affect cirrus formation and, hence,
global climate by acting as potential ice nucleating particles (INPs) in the troposphere …

To understand the impact of light-absorbing organic aerosol, also called brown carbon
(BrC), it is necessary to determine the extent to which the direct effect through aerosol …

Particles containing secondary organic material (SOM) are ubiquitous in the atmosphere
and play a role in climate and air quality. Recently, research has shown that liquid–liquid …
