Water soluble reactive phosphate (SRP) in atmospheric particles over East Mediterranean: The importance of dust and biomass burning events

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki, Christos Panagiotopoulos

The importance of dust and biomass burning episodes on the atmospheric concentration of water-soluble reactive phosphate (SRP) was determined in the eastern Mediterranean. SRP was measured with a new rapid real-time automated analytical system with a time ...

Non-Linear Behaviors In The Dynamics Of Complex Systems Through A Multifractal Hydrodynamic Model

Maria-Alexandra Paun

Some non-linear behaviors in the dynamics of complex systems using the Scale Relativity Theory in the form of Multifractal Hydrodynamic Model are analyzed. By assimilating any complex system to a mathematical multifractal-type object, it is shown that the ...

The standard operating procedure for Airmodus Particle Size Magnifier and nano-Condensation Nucleus Counter

Lubna Dada

Measurements of aerosol particles and clusters smaller than 3 nm in diameter are performed by many groups in order to detect recently formed or emitted nanoparticles and for studying the formation and early growth processes of aerosol particles. The Airmod ...

Towards a concentration closure of sub-6 nm aerosol particles and sub-3 nm atmospheric clusters

Lubna Dada

Atmospheric clusters play a key role in atmospheric new particle formation and they are a sensitive indicator for atmospheric chemistry. Both the formation and loss of atmospheric clusters include a complex set of interlinked physical and chemical processe ...

Constraining the response factors of an extractive electrospray ionization mass spectrometer for near-molecular aerosol speciation

Julia Schmale

Online characterization of aerosol composition at the near-molecular level is key to understanding chemical reaction mechanisms, kinetics, and sources under various atmospheric conditions. The recently developed extractive electrospray ionization time-of-f ...

The acidity of atmospheric particles and clouds

Athanasios Nenes

Acidity, defined as pH, is a central component of aqueous chemistry. In the atmosphere, the acidity of condensed phases (aerosol particles, cloud water, and fog droplets) governs the phase partitioning of semivolatile gases such as HNO3, NH3, HCl, and orga ...

Sparsely observed functional time series: estimation and prediction

Victor Panaretos, Tomas Rubin

Functional time series analysis, whether based on time or frequency domain methodology, has traditionally been carried out under the assumption of complete observation of the constituent series of curves, assumed stationary. Nevertheless, as is often the c ...

Study of Aerodynamic Grain Entrainment in Aeolian Transport

Guang Li

Aeolian transport controls landform formations on Earth and other planets and crucially affects the atmospheric system. With elaborate wind tunnel measurements, we find that the aerodynamic entrainment rate follows a yet unreported exponential increase in ...

Solution-based heteroepitaxial growth of stable mixed cation/anion hybrid perovskite thin film under ambient condition via a scalable crystal engineering approach

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Fabrizio Giordano

The performance of perovskite solar cells is under direct control of the perovskite film quality and controlling the crystalinity and orientation of solution-processed perovskite film is a fundamental challenge. In this study, we present a scalable fabrica ...

Microphysics and dynamics of snowfall associated with a warm conveyor belt over Korea

Alexis Berne, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon, Nikola Besic, Josué Etienne Gehring, Nicolas Jean François Jullien

On 28 February 2018, 57mm of precipitation associated with a warm conveyor belt (WCB) fell within 21 h over South Korea. To investigate how the large-scale circulation influenced the microphysics of this intense precipitation event, we used radar measureme ...

Effects of Atmospheric Processing on the Oxidative Potential of Biomass Burning Organic Aerosols

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki

Oxidative potential (OP), which is the ability of certain components in atmospheric particles to generate reactive oxidative species (ROS) and deplete antioxidants in vivo, is a prevailing toxicological mechanism underlying the adverse health effects assoc ...

Cloud condensation nuclei activity of six pollenkitts and the influence of their surface activity

Athanasios Nenes

The role of surfactants in governing water interactions of atmospheric aerosols has been a recurring topic in cloud microphysics for more than two decades. Studies of detailed surface thermodynamics are limited by the availability of aerosol samples for ex ...

Atmospheric evolution of molecular-weight-separated brown carbon from biomass burning

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki

Biomass burning is a major source of atmospheric brown carbon (BrC), and through its absorption of UV/VIS radiation, it can play an important role in the planetary radiative balance and atmospheric photochemistry. The considerable uncertainty of BrC impact ...
