متن کاملAerosol hygroscopicity and cloud condensation nuclei activity during the ACExp campaign: implications for cloud condensation nuclei parameterization
Aerosol hygroscopicity and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity under background conditions and during pollution events are investigated during the AerosolCCN-Cloud Closure Experiment (ACExp) campaign conducted at Xianghe, China in summer 2013. A gradual increase in size-resolved activation ratio (AR) with particle diameter (Dp) suggests that aerosol particles have different hygroscopicitie...
متن کاملQuantifying wet scavenging processes in aircraft observations of nitric acid and cloud condensation nuclei
[1] Wet scavenging is an important sink term for many atmospheric constituents. However, production of precipitation in clouds is poorly understood, and pollutant removal through wet scavenging is difficult to separate from removal through dry scavenging, atmospheric mixing, or chemical transformations. Here we use airborne data from the International Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Tran...
متن کاملOrganic condensation: a vital link connecting aerosol formation to cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) concentrations
Atmospheric aerosol particles influence global climate as well as impair air quality through their effects on atmospheric visibility and human health. Ultrafine (<100 nm) particles often dominate aerosol numbers, and nucleation of atmospheric vapors is an important source of these particles. To have climatic relevance, however, the freshly nucleated particles need to grow in size. We combine ob...
متن کاملCloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity of aliphatic amine secondary aerosol
Aliphatic amines can form secondary aerosol via oxidation with atmospheric radicals (e.g., hydroxyl radical and nitrate radical). The particle can contain both secondary organic aerosol (SOA) and inorganic salts. The ratio of organic to inorganic materials in the particulate phase influences aerosol hygroscopicity and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity. SOA formed from trimethylamine (TMA...
