متن کاملThe Impact of Aerosol Particle Mixing State on the Hygroscopicity of Sea Spray Aerosol.
Aerosol particles influence global climate by determining cloud droplet number concentrations, brightness, and lifetime. Primary aerosol particles, such as those produced from breaking waves in the ocean, display large particle-particle variability in chemical composition, morphology, and physical phase state, all of which affect the ability of individual particles to accommodate water and grow...
متن کاملQuantifying aerosol mixing state with entropy and diversity measures
This paper presents the first quantitative metric for aerosol population mixing state, defined as the distribution of per-particle chemical species composition. This new metric, the mixing state index χ , is an affine ratio of the average per-particle species diversity Dα and the bulk population species diversity Dγ , both of which are based on information-theoretic entropy measures. The mixing...
متن کاملAerosol optical properties during INDOEX based on measured aerosol particle size and composition
[1] The light scattering and light absorption as a function of wavelength and relative humidity due to aerosols measured at the Kaashidhoo Climate Observatory in the Republic of the Maldives during the INDOEX field campaign has been calculated. Using sizesegregated measurements of aerosol chemical composition, calculated light scattering and absorption has been evaluated against measurements of...
متن کاملSimulating the evolution of soot mixing state with a particle-resolved aerosol model
The mixing state of soot particles in the atmosphere is of crucial importance for assessing their climatic impact, since it governs their chemical reactivity, cloud condensation nuclei activity and radiative properties. To improve the mixing state representation in models, we present a new approach, the stochastic particle-resolved model PartMC-MOSAIC, which explicitly resolves the composition ...
