Microphysical chemistry of fog–aerosol interactions over the northwest Atlantic Ocean during Fatima 2022

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Fifteen size‐resolved aerosol samples collected during marine fog, with adjacent ambient observations, show that coarse sea salt aerosol is rapidly grown and lost in the northwest North Atlantic Ocean except when subject to extreme winds. The persistence of fog in the absence of sea salt is determined by available fine‐mode aerosol, where greater ...

Aerosol dust absorption

open access: yes
) was employed as the reference. Scattering coefficients were measured with an Ecotech Aurora 4000 nephelometer. The mass concentration was obtained after the weighting of filters before and after the sampling, and the particle size distribution (PSD) was measured by means of optical particle counters (Grimm 11-D).Measurements of the scattering with ...

Assessment of Soiling Dynamics and Cleaning Efficiency for Photovoltaic Modules Under Different Dust Environments

open access: yesSolar RRL, EarlyView.
A laboratory framework reproduces site‐specific soiling and cleaning dynamics of photovoltaic modules using real dusts from contrasting climates. Accelerated humidity–temperature cycling replicates 1 month of outdoor cementation in only ≈ 1.5 days.

The evolution of the global aerosol system in a transient climate simulation from 1860 to 2100 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The evolution of the global aerosol system from 1860 to 2100 is investigated through a transient atmosphere-ocean General Circulation Model climate simulation with interactively coupled atmospheric aerosol and oceanic biogeochemistry modules.

Variation on Toxic and Inflammatory Potential of Coal Smoke of Different Sources From a Region With High Lung Cancer Risk

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excess lung cancer risk in Xuanwei and Fuyuan, China, has been attributed to household air pollution from use of a locally sourced smoky (bituminous) coal. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain unclear. Given the important role of inflammation in lung cancer development, this study compared the proinflammatory potentials of the ...

3+2 + X: what is the most useful depolarization input for retrieving microphysical properties of non-spherical particles from lidar measurements using the spheroid model of Dubovik et al. (2006)? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The typical multiwavelength aerosol lidar data set for inversion of optical to microphysical parameters is composed of three backscatter coefficients (β) at 355, 532, and 1064 nm and two extinction coefficients (α) at 355 and 532 nm.

A global comparison of GEOS-Chem predicted and remotely-sensed mineral dust aerosol optical depth

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2012
Dust aerosol optical depth (AOD) and vertical distribution of aerosol extinction predicted by a global chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem) are compared to space-borne data from the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Multi-Angle ...

The Impact of Environmental Pollution and Climate Change on Allergic Rhinitis and Lung Diseases

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution and climate change seriously affect human health, leading to the onset and exacerbation of chronic respiratory diseases, such as allergic rhinitis and lung diseases. Over the past several decades, increasing air pollution and environmental exposure owing to global urbanization, industrialization, and rapid economic ...

Analysis of a saline dust storm from the Aralkum Desert – Part 1: Consistency between multisensor satellite aerosol products [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics
The Aralkum Desert presents a challenging environment for satellite aerosol observations due to its very bright, heterogeneous, and dynamic surfaces and the lack of in situ constraints on region-specific aerosol properties.
