Evolution of Organic Aerosols in the Atmosphere

Jose L. Jimenez, +66 more
- 11 Dec 2009 - 
TL;DR: A unifying model framework describing the atmospheric evolution of OA that is constrained by high–time-resolution measurements of its composition, volatility, and oxidation state is presented, which can serve as a basis for improving parameterizations in regional and global models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mobility particle size spectrometers: harmonization of technical standards and data structure to facilitate high quality long-term observations of atmospheric particle number size distributions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared commercial and custom-made inversion routines to calculate the particle number size distributions from the measured electrical mobility distribution, and concluded that the consistency of these reference instruments to the total particle number concentration was less than 5%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative sampling using an Aerodyne aerosol mass spectrometer 1. Techniques of data interpretation and error analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the quadrupole mass spectrometer (AMS) during the mass spectrum (MS) mode of operation to estimate the chemical composition and size of volatile and semivolatile fine airborne particulate matter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chase Studies of Particulate Emissions from in-use New York City Vehicles

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used an Aerodyne aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) to provide size-resolved and chemically resolved characterization of the nonrefractory portion of the emitted PM; refractory materials such as elemental carbon were not measured in this study.
