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.About:

The Relationship Between Health Effects and Airborne Particulate Constituents
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between sources and PM is treated both mechanistically and in terms of methodological strategies adopted assess the link between emissions, atmospheric processes and health hazard, and most accredited biochemical pathways leading to adverse health effects are also described.

Probing the Water Uptake and Phase State of Individual Sucrose Nanoparticles Using Atomic Force Microscopy.
TL;DR: In this paper, an atomic force microscopy (AFM) methodology was used to measure the water uptake and phase state of individual sucrose nanoparticles. But, the phase transitions between solid and semi-solid and between semisolid and liquid for sucrose were at ∼18 and 60% RH, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of ambient temperature on the heterogeneity of ambient fine particle chemical composition and disease prevalence.
TL;DR: Patterns demonstrated that ambient temperature may manipulate fine particulate composition, and differences may be augmented by rising temperatures due to changing climate.

TL;DR: The first volume of the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report as mentioned in this paper was published in 2007 and covers several topics including the extensive range of observations now available for the atmosphere and surface, changes in sea level, assesses the paleoclimatic perspective, climate change causes both natural and anthropogenic, and climate models for projections of global climate.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of the climate system and its dynamics, including observed climate variability and change, the carbon cycle, atmospheric chemistry and greenhouse gases, and their direct and indirect effects.
Atmospheric chemistry and physics: from air pollution to climate change.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a model for the chemistry of the Troposphere of the atmosphere and describe the properties of the Atmospheric Aqueous phase of single aerosol particles.
