New particle formation (NPF) represents the first step in the complex processes leading to
formation of cloud condensation nuclei. Newly formed nanoparticles affect human health, air …

The literature on atmospheric particulate matter (PM), or atmospheric aerosol, has increased
enormously over the last 2 decades and amounts now to some 1500–2000 papers per year …

Since the publication of the compilation of biomass burning emission factors by Andreae
and Merlet (2001), a large number of studies have greatly expanded the amount of available …

Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF) is an important global phenomenon that is
nevertheless sensitive to ambient conditions. According to both observation and theoretical …

A key challenge in aerosol pollution studies and climate change assessment is to
understand how atmospheric aerosol particles are initially formed,. Although new particle …

Atmospheric aerosols and their effect on clouds are thought to be important for
anthropogenic radiative forcing of the climate, yet remain poorly understood. Globally …

Aerosol particles in the atmosphere profoundly influence public health and climate. Ultrafine
particles enter the body through the lungs and can translocate to essentially all organs, and …

Abstract In the central Arctic Ocean the formation of clouds and their properties are sensitive
to the availability of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). The vapors responsible for new …

New particle formation has been estimated to produce around half of cloud‐forming particles
in the present‐day atmosphere, via gas‐to‐particle conversion. Here we assess the …

Iodic acid (HIO3) is known to form aerosol particles in coastal marine regions, but predicted
nucleation and growth rates are lacking. Using the CERN CLOUD (Cosmics Leaving …
