Literature Review: Aerosols and Hydrologic cycle
نویسنده
چکیده
Tiny airborn particles including those released by human activities and the secondary organic aerosols have potential impacts on the hydrologic cycle. This review briefly introduces the aerosols formation, potential feedback between the aerosols and hydrologic cycle. Recent progress in aerosols, cloud and precipitation is described. The current status using model tools to investigate the interaction between the aerosols and hydrologic cycle are introduced. This review also outlines the satellite view of aerosols and their possible impacts on the cloud formation. Through the literature review, the future challenges in this area are addressed.

Dust Particles and Aerosols: Impact on Biota “A Review” (Part II)
This is the second of series on the impact of dust. It focuses on the physical, chemical and physiological effects of dust particles and aerosols. Plants of all types and classes (from algae to forest trees and everything in between) are adversely affected either directly through abrasion by airborne particles or through interference with plant physiology or indirectly through the impact on soi...
متن کاملClimate effects of black carbon aerosols in China and India.
In recent decades, there has been a tendency toward increased summer floods in south China, increased drought in north China, and moderate cooling in China and India while most of the world has been warming. We used a global climate model to investigate possible aerosol contributions to these trends. We found precipitation and temperature changes in the model that were comparable to those obser...

متن کاملChallenges and developments of bioretention facilities in treating urban stormwater runoff; A review
Bioretention or rain garden is a preferable low impact development (LID) approach due to its characteristics which reflect natural water cycle processes. However, this system is still little understood and quite complicated in terms of design and implementation due to many technical considerations. Hence, this paper gives a review of the challenges and developments for the use of bioretention f...
متن کاملCoronavirus as a New Challenge for Infection Control in Dentistry: A Literature Review
Modes of transmission of the COVID-19 virus are still unclear. The virus could spread through direct routes, including aerosols and saliva, and indirect transmission through contaminated surfaces. Dental practitioners produce airborne infectious particles especially when using rotary instruments during treatment. Oral fluids, blood, and oral mucosa are also sources of infection, so dentists ar...
