The observed values are significantly lower than those observed in the megacity region of Beijing (Gunthe et al., 2011). Figure 2b shows the activated fraction, i.e. the ratio of

We measured the mobility equivalent critical dry diameter for cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activation ( d c me ) and the particle mass of size-selected (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 and

It has been widely accepted that the key criterion for discern- ing an NPF event is to identify an acute burst of nucleation- mode particles, known as newly formed particles up to a

The aims of this work are to (i) assess the accuracy of state-of-the-art global aerosol models in simulating the chemical composition and number concentration of aerosol particles,

The observed positive cor- relation between CCN concentration and temperature is con- trary to the global net effect of aerosol particles, which is to cool the surface (Solomon et
