Biomass-burning impact on CCN number, hygroscopicity and cloud formation during summertime in the eastern Mediterranean

Aikaterini Bougiatioti, +12 more
- 14 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the concentration, cloud condensation nuclei activity and hygroscopic properties of particles influenced by biomass burning in the eastern Mediterranean and their impacts on cloud droplet formation were investigated.
Journal Article

Real-time sensors for indoor air monitoring and challenges ahead in deploying them to urban buildings

Prashant Kumar, +6 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: Forouzanfar et al. as discussed by the authors provide a review of the new air pollution sensing methods to determine indoor air quality and discuss how real-time sensing could bring a paradigm shift in controlling the concentration of key air pollutants in billions of urban houses worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloud droplet activation of mixed organic-sulfate particles produced by the photooxidation of isoprene

Stephanie M. King, +13 more
- 27 Apr 2010 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) properties of ammonium sulfate particles mixed with organic material condensed during the hydroxyl-radical-initiated photooxidation of isoprene (C5H8) were investigated in the continuous flow Harvard Environmental Chamber.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climatology and trends of aerosol optical depth over the Mediterranean basin during the last 12 years (2002-2014) based on Collection 006 MODIS-Aqua data

Athina Avgousta Floutsi, +5 more
- 01 May 2016 - 
TL;DR: Fine-mode optical depth is found to decrease over almost all areas of the study region during the 12-year period, marking the decreasing contribution of anthropogenic particulate matter emissions over the study area.
Journal ArticleDOI
