Traffic-originated nanocluster emission exceeds H2SO4-driven photochemical new particle formation in an urban area [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2020
Elevated ambient concentrations of sub-3 nm particles (nanocluster aerosol, NCA) are generally related to atmospheric new particle formation events, usually linked with gaseous sulfuric acid (H2SO4) produced via photochemical oxidation of sulfur ...

Concentrations and Size Distributions of Particle Lung-deposited Surface Area (LDSA) in an Underground Mine

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2021
Ultrafine particles produced by diesel-powered vehicles in underground mines are largely unaccounted for in mass-based air quality metrics. The Lung Deposited Surface Area concentration (LDSA) is an alternative to describe the harmfulness of particles ...

A novel in-situ method to determine the respiratory tract deposition of carbonaceous particles reveals dangers of public commuting in highly polluted megacity

open access: yesParticle and Fibre Toxicology, 2022
Background Exposure to air pollutants is one of the major environmental health risks faced by populations globally. Information about inhaled particle deposition dose is crucial in establishing the dose–response function for assessing health-related ...

An online monitor of the oxidative capacity of aerosols (o-MOCA) [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2017
The capacity of airborne particulate matter to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been correlated with the generation of oxidative stress both in vitro and in vivo.

Aerosol emissions and gravity waves of Taal volcano

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The Taal volcano (14.0 N, 121.0 E) in Philippines erupted in January–February 2020, with a part of aerosols drifted northward and detected by a lidar system at Kaohsiung city (22.37 N, 120.15 E), Taiwan.

Characterization of aerosol properties at Cyprus, focusing on cloud condensation nuclei and ice-nucleating particles [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2019
As part of the A-LIFE (Absorbing aerosol layers in a changing climate: aging, LIFEtime and dynamics) campaign, ground-based measurements were carried out in Paphos, Cyprus, to characterize the abundance, properties, and sources of aerosol particles in ...

Update on the Science and Technology of Diesel Particulate Filters

open access: yesKONA Powder and Particle Journal, 2014
As diesel emission regulations become more stringent, diesel particulate filters (DPFs) have become possibly the most important and complex diesel emission control device. This paper provides an update on the science

Size-resolved condensation sink as an approach to understand pathways how gaseous emissions affect health and climate [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Vapour condensation onto existing aerosol particles is important regarding aerosol health and climate effects. Existing particles can act as carriers for toxic vapours into the human respiratory tract.
