Abstract Recently, PM 2.5 (atmospheric fine particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter≤
2.5 μm) have received so much attention that the observations, source appointment and …

Natural and human activities generate a significant amount of PM 2.5 (particles≤ 2.5 μm in
aerodynamic diameter) into the surrounding atmospheric environments. Because of their …

We performed a systematic intercomparison study of the chemistry and yields of secondary
organic aerosol (SOA) generated from OH oxidation of a common set of gas-phase …

Aerosol particles are essential constituents of the Earth's atmosphere, impacting the earth
radiation balance directly by scattering and absorbing solar radiation, and indirectly by …

Heterogeneous chemistry of the most important atmospheric oxidants, O3, NO3, and OH,
plays a central role in regulating atmospheric gas concentrations, processing aerosols, and …

The effects of various meteorological parameters such as temperature, wind speed, absolute
humidity, precipitation and mixing height on PM 2.5 concentrations over Europe were …

Reactions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) with NO3 radicals and of reactive
intermediates of oxidized VOC with NO x can lead to the formation of highly functionalized …

We investigated the seasonal trends of OA sources affecting the air quality of Marseille
(France), which is the largest harbor of the Mediterranean Sea. This was achieved by …

Source apportionment of organic aerosols (OA) is of great importance to better understand
the health impact and climate effects of particulate matter air pollution. Air quality models act …

Poor air quality is still a threat for human health in many parts of the world. In order to assess
measures for emission reductions and improved air quality, three-dimensional atmospheric …
