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

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.

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.

Limitation of Atmospheric Composition by Combustion–Explosion in Exoplanetary Atmospheres [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2018
Abstract This work presents theoretical studies that combine aspects of combustion and explosion theory with exoplanetary atmospheric science. Super-Earths could possess a large amount of molecular hydrogen depending on disk, planetary, and stellar properties.

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.

Measuring atmospheric composition change [PDF]

Atmospheric Environment, 2009
Scientific findings from the last decades have clearly highlighted the need for a more comprehensive approach to atmospheric change processes. In fact, observation of atmospheric composition variables has been an important activity of atmospheric research that has developed instrumental tools (advanced analytical techniques) and platforms (instrumented

Prediction of size-resolved number concentration of cloud condensation nuclei and long-term measurements of their activation characteristics

Scientific Reports, 2017
Atmospheric aerosol particles acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are key elements in the hydrological cycle and climate. To improve our understanding of the activation characteristics of CCN and to obtain accurate predictions of their ...

The local ship speed reduction effect on black carbon emissions measured at a remote marine station [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Speed restrictions for ships have been introduced locally to reduce the waves and turbulence causing erosion, and safety hazards, and to mitigate the air and underwater noise emissions. Ship speed restrictions could be used to minimize the climate impact

Atmospheric Structure and Composition

, 2009
Titan's atmosphere is predominantly N2 with CH4 the next most abundant molecule. It has a mole fraction of 0.05 just above the surface decreasing to 0.014 in the stratosphere. Above the homopause (~800–850 km), it increases to 0.12 at the exobase. The third abundant molecule is H2 with a tropospheric mole fraction of 0.001 increasing to 0.004 at ~1000 ...
