Interactive comment on “Simultaneous measurements of new particle formation in 1-second time resolution at a street site and a rooftop site” by Yujiao Zhu et al

This manuscript presents a field measurement of new particle formation (NPF) events in urban Beijing, China. The deployment of Fast Mobility Particle Sizers (FMPs) is unique and could deliver new insights into NPF, if interpreted properly. Overall, this manuscript describes interesting phenomena that NPF was enhanced in winter at a street site comparing to a close rooftop site, whereas NPF was ...

This manuscript investigates new particle formation (NPF) observed simultaneously at two sites in a polluted urban environment. The analysis is based high-time resolution measurements, which increases the originality of the results. The background for this study (section 1) as well as the used methods (section 2) are very well written. Contrary to this, there are serious problems in how many of...
