Trends in Ocean S‐Isotopes May Be Influenced by Major LIP Events
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Hygroscopic growth and droplet activation of soot particles: uncoated, succinic or sulfuric acid coated [PDF]
The hygroscopic growth and droplet activation of uncoated soot particles and such coated with succinic acid and sulfuric acid were investigated during the IN-11 campaign at the Aerosol Interaction and Dynamics in the Atmosphere (AIDA) facility.

Soot Formation in Methane Pyrolysis Reactor: Modeling Soot Growth and Particle Characterization
Methane pyrolysis is a very attractive and climate-friendly process for hydrogen production and the sequestration of carbon as solid material. The formation of soot particles in methane pyrolysis reactors needs to be understood for technology scale-up calling for appropriate soot growth models.

Modelling the Optical Properties of Soot Particles under Various Aging Conditions
As atmospheric fresh soot particles age, they become coated with other chemical species. This transforms their physicochemical properties and affects their optical characteristics, which is of great importance to air quality, the environment and climate ...

Internally mixed soot, sulfates, and organic matter in aerosol particles from Mexico City [PDF]
Soot particles, which are aggregated carbonaceous spherules with graphitic structures, are major aerosol constituents that result from burning of fossil fuel, biofuel, and biomass. Their properties commonly change through reaction with other particles or
