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

TLDR
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.

Characterization and Seasonal Variations of Organic and Elemental Carbon and Levoglucosan in PM10 in Krynica Zdroj, Poland

TL;DR: In this article, the ambient aerosol (PM10) concentrations of elemental carbon (EC), organic carbon (OC), total carbon (TC), and levoglucosan are reported for a Polish health resort following a one-year (March 2016-April 2017) sampling campaign.

Chemical characteristics of size-resolved aerosols from Asian dust and haze episode in Seoul Metropolitan City

TL;DR: In this paper, a 10-stage Micro-Orifice Uniform Deposit Impactor (MOUDI) was used to collect aerosol particles in Seoul using a 10 stage micro-orifice uniform deposit impactor to investigate the size distributions of aerosol mass and water-soluble inorganic ions (Na +, NH 4 +, K +, Mg 2−+, Ca 2+, Cl −, NO 3 −, and SO 4 2 − ) for the two high-mass episodes taking place in February and April, 2009.

Role of snow in the fate of gaseous and particulate exhaust pollutants from gasoline-powered vehicles

TL;DR: Interactions of exhaust pollution with snow at low ambient temperature using fresh snow in a temperature-controlled chamber and a gasoline-powered engine from a modern light duty vehicle generated the exhaust and was operated in homogeneous and stratified engine regimes is investigated.

Improved UHPLC-MS/MS Methods for Analysis of Isoprene-Derived Organosulfates.

TL;DR: A UHPLC combined with high-resolution tandem mass spectrometric method that significantly improves the separation efficiency and detection sensitivity of these compounds in aerosol matrices and elucidate a number of isomers of the MW 214 and the MW 212 organosulfates and provide strong evidence for their molecular structures.
