  1. 6. Experimental Studies on Ambient Aerosol Hygroscopicity

    Författare :Erik Fors; Kärnfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysicumarkivet A:2011:Fors;

    Sammanfattning : The air around us is full of aerosol particles which originate from a myriad of sources and which have vastly different chemical and physical properties. These particles span size ranges from 1 nm to 100 μm, equivalent to a factor 100 000 in diameter difference and a factor 10^15 in volume difference. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Aerosol-water interaction at sub and super-saturated regimes : From small scale molecular mechanisms to large scale atmospheric models

    Författare :Narges Rastak; Ilona Riipinen; Maria Kanakidou; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; miljövetenskap; Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The term “atmospheric aerosol” refers to solid or liquid particles suspended in the atmosphere. Atmospheric aerosols influence the Earth’s energy budget directly by scattering and absorbing radiation (known as the direct aerosol effect) and indirectly by acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and ice nucleating particles and thereby modifying cloud properties (known as the indirect aerosol effect).

  3. 8. Cloud Droplet Forming Potential of Ageing Soot and Surfactant Particles : Laboratory research and Köhler modelling

    Författare :Cerina Wittbom; MERGE: ModElling the Regional and Global Earth system; []
    Nyckelord :Hygroscopicity; CCN; BC;

    Sammanfattning : Aerosol particles affect Earth’s climate system by scattering and absorbing light. The perturbation of the climate system caused by a change in aerosol configuration due to anthropogenic emissions has recently improved. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Water Condensation and Freezing in the Atmosphere: Exploring Deliquescence and Ice Nucleation

    Författare :Dimitri Castarède; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hygroscopicity; Deliquescence; Atmosphere; Particles; Ice Nucleation; Ice Nucleation Chamber;

    Sammanfattning : Atmospheric aerosols play key roles in numerous atmospheric processes. They affect human health, are substrates and components for atmospheric chemistry, and via their contribution to clouds affect the water cycle and the energy balance of the planet. LÄS MER
