Journal ArticleDOI

Regional modeling of carbonaceous aerosols over Europe—focus on secondary organic aerosols

TL;DR: In this article, an improved and complete secondary organic aerosols (SOA) chemistry scheme was implemented in the CHIMERE model, which significantly improved agreement between long series of simulated and observed particulate matter concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

A one-year comprehensive chemical characterisation of fine aerosol (PM 2.5 ) at urban, suburban and rural background sites in the region of Paris (France)

TL;DR: The chemical composition of fine aerosol is very homogeneous at the five sites and is composed of OM (38-47%), nitrate (17-22%), non-sea-salt sulfate and ammonium, ammonium (10-12), EC (4-10%), mineral dust (2-5%) and sea salt (3-4%) as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sources and geographical origins of fine aerosols in Paris (France)

TL;DR: In this paper, Bressi et al. used positive matrix factorization (PMF3.0) to identify and apportion fine aerosols to their major sources in Paris (France) and determine their geographical origins.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ, satellite measurement and model evidence on the dominant regional contribution to fine particulate matter levels in the Paris megacity

TL;DR: A detailed characterization of air quality in the megacity of Paris (France) during two 1-month intensive campaigns and from additional 1-year observations revealed that about 70 % of the urban background fine particulate matter (PM) is transported on average into Paris from upwind regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Traffic induced particle resuspension in Paris: Emission factors and source contributions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed extensive field measurements for quantification of the emission factors from different types of road in the city of Paris, and investigated the causes of their variability and the contributions to the ambient air PM10 observed across one year at one traffic monitoring site in the ring road of Paris.
