Determination of car on-road black carbon and particle number emission factors and comparison between mobile and stationary measurements [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2015 We have used two methods for measuring emission factors (EFs) in real driving conditions on five cars in a controlled environment: the stationary method, where the investigated vehicle drives by the stationary measurement platform and the composition of ...

In situ characterization of mixed phase clouds using the Small Ice Detector and the Particle Phase Discriminator [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2016 Mixed phase clouds (MPCs) represent a great source of uncertainty for both climate predictions and weather forecasts. In particular, there is still a lack of understanding on how ice forms in these clouds.

Thermoluminescent aerosol analysis [PDF]
, 1977 A method for detecting and measuring trace amounts of aerosols when reacted with ozone in a gaseous environment was examined. A sample aerosol was exposed to a fixed ozone concentration for a fixed period of time, and a fluorescer was added to the ...
