Research on aerosol sources and chemical composition: Past, current and emerging issues

TL;DR: In spite of considerable progress in recent years, a quantitative and predictive understanding of atmospheric aerosol sources, chemical composition, transformation processes and environmental effects is still rather limited, and therefore represents a major research challenge in atmospheric science as discussed by the authors.

Aircraft engine exhaust emissions and other airport-related contributions to ambient air pollution: A review

TL;DR: This review aims to summarise the state-of-the-art research on aircraft and airport emissions and attempts to synthesise the results of studies that have addressed this issue, to address the future potential of research by highlighting research needs.

Parameterization of cloud droplet formation in global climate models

TL;DR: In this paper, an aerosol activation parameterization based on a generalized representation of aerosol size and composition within the framework of an ascending adiabatic parcel is presented. But the authors do not consider the kinetic limitations of droplet growth.

Reactive uptake of glyoxal by particulate matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that the heterogeneous loss of glyoxal in the atmosphere is at least as important as gas phase loss mechanisms, including photolysis and reaction with hydroxyl radicals.

Effects of ship emissions on sulphur cycling and radiative climate forcing over the ocean

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a global chemical transport model to show that ship sulphur emissions can be a dominant contributor to atmospheric sulphur dioxide concentrations over much of the world's oceans and in several coastal regions.
