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:

Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of meteorological conditions on PM2.5 concentrations across China: A review of methodology and mechanism.
Ziyue Chen,Danlu Chen,Chuanfeng Zhao,Mei Po Kwan,Jun Cai,Yan Zhuang,Bo Zhao,Xiaoyan Wang,Bin Chen,Jing Yang,Ruiyuan Li,Bin He,Bingbo Gao,Kaicun Wang,Bing Xu +14 more
TL;DR: Suggestions on future research and major meteorological approaches for mitigating PM2.5 pollution are made and causality analysis methods are found more suitable for extracting the influence of individual meteorological factors whilst statistical models are good at quantifying the overall effect of multiple meteorological Factors on PM 2.5.
Journal ArticleDOI
An overview of particulate emissions from residential biomass combustion
Estela D. Vicente,Célia Alves +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive tabulation of particulate matter emission factors obtained worldwide is presented and critically evaluated, and the suitability of specific organic markers to assign the input of residential biomass combustion to the ambient carbonaceous aerosol are also discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative contributions of the major sources of heavy metals in soils to ecosystem and human health risks: A case study of Yulin, China
TL;DR: An analysis of the Geoaccumulation Index (Igeo), Contamination Index (Pi), RI, CR and HI of heavy metals identified universal ecosystem risks and both carcinogenic and noncarcinogenic health risks in most sites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of factors impacting emission/concentration of cooking generated particulate matter.
TL;DR: This study reviewed controlled studies available in the cooking PM emissions literature, and found that cooking method, type and quality of the energy source, burner size, cooking pan, cooking oil, food, additives, source surface area, cooking temperature, ventilation and position of the cooking pan on the stove are influential factors affecting cooking PM emission rates and resulting concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of atmospheric particulate matter pollution on environmental biogeochemistry of trace metals in soil-plant system: A review
TL;DR: This systematic review summarizes the interactions of PMs-TMs in soil-plant systems including the deposition, transfer, accumulation, toxicity, and mechanisms among them and current knowledge gaps and prospective are proposed for future research agendas.

Observations of the eruption of the Sarychev volcano and simulations using the HadGEM2 climate model.
Jim Haywood,Jim Haywood,Andrew Jones,Lieven Clarisse,Adam Bourassa,John E. Barnes,Paul Telford,Nicolas Bellouin,Olivier Boucher,Paul Agnew,Cathy Clerbaux,Pierre-François Coheur,D. A. Degenstein,Peter Braesicke +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a nudged version of the HadGEM2 climate model to investigate how well this state-of-the-science climate model can replicate the distributions of SO2 and sulfate aerosol.

Acid gas and metal emission rates during long‐lived basalt degassing at Stromboli Volcano
Patrick Allard,Alessandro Aiuppa,Henri Loyer,Francine Carrot,André Gaudry,Guy Pinte,Agnès Michel,Gaetano Dongarra +7 more
TL;DR: The discharge of acid gases and metals from Stromboli is determined from airborne and ground-based filter sampling of particulate matter in the volcanic plume, combined with COSPEC measurements of SO2 fluxes as mentioned in this paper.

Artefacts in the sampling of nitrate studied in the INTERCOMP campaigns of EUROTRAC-AEROSOL
Martijn Schaap,G Spindler,Michael Schulz,Karin Acker,Willy Maenhaut,Axel Berner,Wolfgang Wieprecht,N. Streit,K. Müller,Erika Brüggemann,Xuguang Chi,J. P. Putaud,Regina Hitzenberger,Hans Puxbaum,Urs Baltensperger,H.M. ten Brink +15 more
TL;DR: In a series of intercomparison trials, the authors of as mentioned in this paper found that ammonium nitrate degradation from Teflon and quartz filters is only substantial when temperatures are much higher than those during the field campaign, and that the influence of the mentioned artefacts was negligible.

Emissions from charbroiling and grilling of chicken and beef.
Jacob D. McDonald,Barbara Zielinska,Eric M. Fujita,John C. Sagebiel,Judith C. Chow,John G. Watson +5 more
TL;DR: Emission rates for fine particle (<2.5μ m ) mass, carbon (organic/elemental), inorganic ions, elements, and speciated organic compounds are reported for charbroiling hamburger, steak, and chicken in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
A highly resolved anion-exchange chromatographic method for determination of saccharidic tracers for biomass combustion and primary bio-particles in atmospheric aerosol
TL;DR: In this article, an improved HPAEC with pulsed amperometric detection (PAD) method is developed and validated for simultaneous determination of atmospherically relevant sugar alcohols, monosaccharides, and monosACcharide anhydrides.
