Organic aerosol (OA) is a key component of total submicron particulate matter (PM 1), and
comprehensive knowledge of OA sources across Europe is crucial to mitigate PM 1 levels …

PM 2.5 pollution episodes rapidly and significantly deteriorate the air quality and are a
critical concern worldwide. This study developed a fusion method based on the moving …

Particulate matter (PM) is the air pollutant that causes the greatest deleterious health effects
across the world, so PM is routinely monitored within air quality networks, usually in respect …

Understanding the atmospheric processes involving carbonaceous aerosols (CAs) is crucial
for assessing air pollution impacts on human health and climate. The sources and formation …

Kraków is routinely affected by very high air pollution levels, especially during the winter
months. Although a lot of effort has been made to characterize ambient aerosol, there is a …

Conventional factor analyses can present problems in cases with changing numbers of
sources and/or time-dependent source compositions. There is also lack of a reliable method …

Wildfires occurring near urban areas are known to have exceedingly detrimental impacts on
the environment, air quality, economy and human health. In this framework, this study …

Abstract Oxidized Organic Aerosol (OOA), a major component of fine atmospheric particles,
impacts climate and human health. Previous experiments and atmospheric models …

Krakow is a pollution hot-spot in Europe which is thought to be caused mainly by a high use
of coal combustion (power plants, residential heating). Here, we quantify the impact of coal …

Haze in Bei**g is linked to atmospherically formed secondary organic aerosol, which has
been shown to be particularly harmful to human health. However, the sources and formation …
