Aerosol 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 ...

HyDRo: Atmospheric Retrieval of Rocky Exoplanets in Thermal Emission [PDF]
, 2021 Emission spectroscopy is a promising technique to observe atmospheres of rocky exoplanets, probing both their chemistry and thermal profiles. We present HyDRo, an atmospheric retrieval framework for thermal emission spectra of rocky exoplanets. HyDRo does not make prior assumptions about the background atmospheric composition, and can therefore be used

Effects of temperature and salinity on bubble-bursting aerosol formation simulated with a bubble-generating chamber [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2022 A new bubble-generating glass chamber with an extensive set of aerosol production experiments is presented. Compared to the experiments described in the literature since the ground-setting works of Edward C. Monahan et al.

Atmospheric Circulation and Composition of GJ1214b [PDF]
, 2011 The exoplanet GJ1214b presents an interesting example of compositional degeneracy for low-mass planets. Its atmosphere may be composed of water, super-solar or solar metallicity material.

The Association between Vessel Departures and Air Pollution in Helsinki Port Area 2016–2021
Atmosphere, 2023 European ports are struggling to install enough shore power connections to follow the European Commission initiative, which insists ships that lie alongside to be plugged in and have their auxiliary engines off in EU ports by 2030.

A generalized bayesian inference method for constraining the interiors of super Earths and sub-Neptunes [PDF]
, 2016 We aim to present a generalized Bayesian inference method for constraining interiors of super Earths and sub-Neptunes. Our methodology succeeds in quantifying the degeneracy and correlation of structural parameters for high dimensional parameter spaces ...

Cleaner fuels for ships provide public health benefits with climate tradeoffs
Nature Communications, 2018 Aerosol pollution from shipping contributes to cooling but also leads to premature mortality and morbidity. Here the authors combine emission inventories, atmospheric models and health risk functions to show how cleaner marine fuels will reduce premature

Nighttime removal of NOx in the summer marine boundary layer [PDF]
, 2004 The nitrate radical, NO3, and dinitrogen pentoxide, N2O5, are two important components of nitrogen oxides that occur predominantly at night in the lower troposphere. Because a large fraction of NO2 reacts to form NO3 and N2O5 during the course of a night,

Inverse modeling of black carbon emissions over China using ensemble data assimilation [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016 Emissions inventories of black carbon (BC), which are traditionally constructed using a bottom-up approach based on activity data and emissions factors, are considered to contain a large level of uncertainty.
