Photochemical grid model implementation and application of VOC, NOx, and O3 source apportionment [PDF]
For the purposes of developing optimal emissions control strategies, efficient approaches are needed to identify the major sources or groups of sources that contribute to elevated ozone (O3) concentrations.

Estimation of the share of artificial Po-210 contamination in the ambient air [PDF]
In this work, source apportionment for unsupported 210Po was conducted. The activity size distributions of both supported and unsupported 210Po in urban aerosols were measured from February to December 2019.

Are contributions of emissions to ozone a matter of scale? [PDF]
Anthropogenic and natural emissions influence the tropospheric ozone budget, thereby affecting air quality and climate. To study the influence of different emission sources on the ozone budget, often source apportionment studies with a tagged tracer ...

Source apportionment with one source unknown
Abstract Attribution of local pollution to area sources is essential to effective management of the environment. Source apportionment addresses the problem by statistical inference of source contributions to total pollution from observations of ambient air chemical composition.

Quantifying black carbon light absorption enhancement with a novel statistical approach [PDF]
Black carbon (BC) particles in the atmosphere can absorb more light when coated by non-absorbing or weakly absorbing materials during atmospheric aging, due to the lensing effect.

Seasonal Variation and Source Apportionment of Inorganic and Organic Components in PM2.5: Influence of Organic Markers Application on PMF Source Apportionment [PDF]
Abstract PM2.5 samples collected over a 1-year period in a Chinese megacity were analyzed for organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), water soluble ions, elements and organic markers such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), hopanes, steranes, and n-alkanes.
