Formation and cycling of aerosols in the global troposphere
Jul 26, 2000 · In this paper we will review progress achieved by the two approaches, and we will attempt to synthesise a combined microphysical and dynamical picture of the global …
The Sources and Impacts of Tropospheric Particulate Matter
Atmospheric aerosol, termed particulate matter (PM), is critically important because of its impact on climate, visibility, biogeochemical cycling, atmospheric reactivity, and human health.
Aerosol concentrations in the upper troposphere are typically 1-2 orders of magnitude lower than in the lower troposphere. The stratosphere contains however an ubiquitous H2SO4-H2O …

The Role of Aerosols in the Troposphere: Radiative Forcing, …
This thesis addresses the role of aerosols in the troposphere from three perspectives: (1) the radiative forcing by aerosols; (2) responses of meteorological and chemical fields to the …
Scattering and absorbing aerosols in the climate system
May 24, 2022 · Tropospheric anthropogenic aerosols contribute the second-largest forcing to climate change, but with high uncertainty owing to their spatio-temporal variability and …
Assessment of the global impact of aerosols on tropospheric oxidants
Feb 10, 2005 · The simulated global distributions of the aerosols are analyzed and evaluated using satellite measurements (Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)) and …

Formation and Cycling of Aerosols in the Global Troposphere
In their role as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), aerosols are linked to, and often control, the hydrologic cycle and therefore major fluxes of the Earth’s radiation balance. Clouds, in tum, …
