Health effects of acid aerosols formed by atmospheric mixtures.
Under ambient conditions, sulfur and nitrogen oxides can react with photochemical products and airborne particles to form acidic vapors and aerosols. Inhalation toxicological studies were conducted, exposing laboratory animals, at rest and during exercise, to multicomponent atmospheric mixtures under conditions favorable to the formation of acidic reaction products. Effects of acid and ozone mi...
متن کاملAtmospheric aerosols: composition, transformation, climate and health effects.
Aerosols are of central importance for atmospheric chemistry and physics, the biosphere, climate, and public health. The airborne solid and liquid particles in the nanometer to micrometer size range influence the energy balance of the Earth, the hydrological cycle, atmospheric circulation, and the abundance of greenhouse and reactive trace gases. Moreover, they play important roles in the repro...
متن کاملRegional Effects of Aerosols on the Atmospheric Radiative Balance
Aerosols represent one of the greatest uncertainties in quantifying atmospheric sources of climate change. The role of aerosol particles in providing nucleation sites for cloud droplets is complex: this so-called “indirect effect” incorporates unsolved problems in atmospheric chemistry, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics. Much of this uncertainty lies in our inability to describe the processes...
متن کاملBackground on health effects of acid aerosols.
This introduction to the 1987 NIEHS-EPA Symposium on the Health Effects of Acid Aerosols reviews the state of our knowledge on this topic as of the close of the 1984 NIEHS Conference on the Health Effects of Acid Precipitation (Environmental Health Perspectives, Volume 63) and the results of some key studies completed since that time. These studies, together with the results of the studies pres...
متن کاملWater Evaporation From Atmospheric Aerosols
With the recent discovery of the ubiquity of organic material in tropospheric aerosols, it has been postulated that the rates of water evaporation and condensation into the aerosols could be affected by thin surfactant films, which could ultimately affect cloud formation. Nathanson et al. have begun to study the effect of water evaporation from sulfuric acid solutions through the short-chain su...
