Frequent new particle formation over the high Arctic pack ice by enhanced iodine emissions

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini

In the central Arctic Ocean the formation of clouds and their properties are sensitive to the availability of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). The vapors responsible for new particle formation (NPF), potentially leading to CCN, have remained unidentified s ...

Sulfuric acid condensation sink calculated for the Arctic Ocean 2018 expedition

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini, Nasser Arbabi

The condensation sink is a measure of the sulfuric acid lifetime against condensation on preexisting aerosol particles. Dimensionally it is the inverse of a time (reported in per second) and it is calculated starting from the aerosol size distribution. A l ...

Tribocorrosion of a CoCrMo alloy in sulfuric acid - Glycerol mixtures

Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

This work reports on the tribocorrosion properties of a CoCrMo alloy sliding under imposed passive potential against alumina in sulfuric acid-glycerol mixtures exhibiting different viscosities and thus, in principle, lubrication properties. As expected, we ...

Ultrafine particle concentration measured during the Arctic Ocean 2018 expedition

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini

The ultrafine particle (UFP) concentration is the concentration of particles having a diameter between 2.5 and 15 nm, it is reported in terms of particle number per cubic centimeter at a time resolution of 10 minutes. UFP are the smallest particles within ...

Evaluation of materials for iodine and technetium immobilization through sorption and redox-driven processes

Wendy Lee Queen, Daniel Teav Sun

Radioactive iodine-129 (I-129) and technetium-99 (Tc-9(9)) pose a risk to groundwater due to their long half-lives, toxicity, and high environmental mobility. Based on literature reviewed in Moore et al. (2019) and Pearce et aL (2019), natural and engineer ...

Fine Particle Iron in Soils and Road Dust Is Modulated by Coal-Fired Power Plant Sulfur

Athanasios Nenes

Transition metal ions, such as water-soluble iron (WS-Fe), are toxic components of fine particles (PM2.5). In Atlanta, from 1998 to 2013, a previous study found that WS-Fe was the PM2.5 species most associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. We exami ...

Hybrid multiple-site mass closure and source apportionment of PM2.5 and aerosol acidity at major cities in the Po Valley

Athanasios Nenes

This study investigates the major chemical components, particle-bound water content, acidity (pH), and major potential sources of PM2.5 in major cities (Belluno, Conegliano, Vicenza, Mestre, Padua, and Rovigo) in the eastern end of the Po Valley. The measu ...
