Journal ArticleDOI
Formation and growth rates of ultrafine atmospheric particles: a review of observations
Markku Kulmala,Hanna Vehkamäki,Tuukka Petäjä,M. Dal Maso,Antti Lauri,V.-M. Kerminen,Wolfram Birmili,Peter H. McMurry +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the formation rate of 3-nm particles is often in the range 0.01-10 cm −3 s −1 in the boundary layer in urban areas and in coastal areas and industrial plumes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of atmospheric aerosol measurements
TL;DR: A review of recent developments in atmospheric aerosol measurements can be found in this article, which focuses on measurements of aerosol integral properties (total number concentration, CCN concentration, optical coefficients, etc.), aerosol physical chemical properties (density, refractive index, equilibrium water content, etc.).
Journal ArticleDOI
Variability in morphology, hygroscopicity, and optical properties of soot aerosols during atmospheric processing
TL;DR: Experimental studies are presented to show that soot particles acquire a large mass fraction of sulfuric acid during atmospheric aging, considerably altering their properties, representing an important mechanism of atmospheric aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

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
Organics alter hygroscopic behavior of atmospheric particles
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed concurrent observations of particle chemical composition and water content from a continental nonurban (Grand Canyon) and an urban (Los Angeles) location to determine whether the water content of atmospheric particles is influenced by the presence of organics.
