Measurement of PM2.5 Mass Concentration Using an Electrostatic Particle Concentrator-Based Quartz Crystal Microbalance

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Particulate matter (PM) is one of the most critical air pollutants, and various instruments have been developed to measure PM mass concentration. Of these, quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) based instruments have received much attention.

Biomass burning aerosols in most climate models are too absorbing

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Uncertainty in the representation of biomass burning (BB) aerosol composition and optical properties in climate models contributes to a range in modeled aerosol effects on incoming solar radiation.

Constraints on climate forcing by sulphate aerosols from seasonal changes in Earth's spin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Angular momentum exchanges between atmosphere and solid Earth are strongly modulated by variations in global atmospheric circulation. Geodetically determined length-of-day (LOD) fluctuations provide an independent resource to investigate climate ...

Evaluation of the ability of radiation transmission model and MODIS images to estimate aerosol optical depth [PDF]

open access: yesمدیریت بیابان, 2018
Aerosols play an important role in the climate system of the atmosphere. These atmospheric particles are directly affected by changing radiation exposure by diffusing and absorbing different wavelengths and indirectly by changing the optical properties ...

Active aerosols

open access: yesOptics Express, 2022
We report the dynamics and control of the orientational and positional order of ensembles of gold nanorods suspended in air at standard temperature and pressure using externally applied electric fields, demonstrating an active aerosol. Light filter, valve and gradient responses are shown, establishing active aerosols as a unique type of optical element

Chemical ageing and transformation of diffusivity in semi-solid multi-component organic aerosol particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Recent experimental evidence underlines the importance of reduced diffusivity in amorphous semi-solid or glassy atmospheric aerosols. This paper investigates the impact of diffusivity on the ageing of multi-component reactive organic particles ...

Photophoresis – a Forgotten Force ??

open access: yesKONA Powder and Particle Journal, 2014
In general a force will act on a particle illuminated by light or other radiation and absorbing part of the flux, and as a consequence a motion will result.

Using Machine Learning Methods to Identify Particle Types from Doppler Lidar Measurements in Iceland

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Doppler lidars are used worldwide for wind monitoring and recently also for the detection of aerosols. Automatic algorithms that classify the lidar signals retrieved from lidar measurements are very useful for the users.

Estimating seasonal variations in cloud droplet number concentration over the boreal forest from satellite observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Seasonal variations in cloud droplet number concentration (NCD) in low-level stratiform clouds over the boreal forest are estimated from MODIS observations of cloud optical and microphysical properties, using a sub-adiabatic cloud model to interpret ...
