Drylands are home to more than 38% of the world's population and are one of the most
sensitive areas to climate change and human activities. This review describes recent …

Aerosols of biological origin play a vital role in the Earth system, particularly in the
interactions between atmosphere, biosphere, climate, and public health. Airborne bacteria …

A new methodology is developed to construct a global (60° S–60° N) long‐term (2000–
2019) high‐resolution (∼ 10‐km h) mesoscale convective system (MCS) database by …

Ice particle formation in tropospheric clouds significantly changes cloud radiative and
microphysical properties. Ice nucleation in the troposphere via homogeneous freezing …

Atmospheric aerosols are complex mixtures of different chemical species, and individual
particles exist in many different shapes and morphologies. Together, these characteristics …

The effect of an increase in atmospheric aerosol concentrations on the distribution and
radiative properties of Earth's clouds is the most uncertain component of the overall global …

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 …

Detection of bioaerosols, or primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs), has become
increasingly important for a wide variety of research communities and scientific questions. In …

Multiphase chemistry plays a vital role in the Earth system, climate, and health. Chemical
reactions, mass transport, and phase transitions between gases, liquids, and solids are …

In the past few decades, especially since the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-
19), the effects of atmospheric bioaerosols on human health, the environment, and climate …
