The Conference on Optical Characterization of Atmospheric Aerosols Miniature, low-cost optical particle counters
نویسندگان
چکیده
A range of miniature, low-cost optical particle counters for characterizing atmospheric particles has been developed. They are intended for use with disposable balloon-borne radiosondes, dropsondes or in dense ground-based sensor networks. Versions exist that are suitable for determining the size distributions and number concentrations of cloud particles or atmospheric aerosols such as mineral dust or volcanic ash.

ارائه روشی سریع برای حذف اثر هوآویزها از تصاویر ماهواره‌ای MODIS
Due to the effect of aerosols present in the atmosphere on the satellite images, the study of the effect of local aerosols distribution on the satellite images is important. On the other hand, the study shows that the effect of aerosols on the greenhouse gases and consequently on climate is also undeniable and as a result, this puts more emphasize on the necessity of this study. Lack of informa...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of ZnO Nanostructures Grown via a Novel Atmospheric Pressure Solution Evaporation Method
In this study, a novel method called “atmospheric pressure solution evaporation (APSE)” wasdeveloped for growing of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanostructures on Al2O3 surface. Zinc acetate dihydrate,Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone, and deionized water were used as precursor, capping, and solvent, respectively.The growth of ZnO nanostructures from evaporated solution was performed at three temperatures of300, 400, ...
متن کاملComparison of the Grimm 1.108 and 1.109 portable aerosol spectrometer to the TSI 3321 aerodynamic particle sizer for dry particles.
This study compared the response of two optical particle counters with that of an aerodynamic particle sizer. The optical particle counters rely on the amount of incident light scattered at 90 degrees by a particle to measure particle number concentration by optical particle size. Two models of optical particle counters from Grimm Technologies were used: the portable aerosol spectrometer (PAS) ...
متن کاملComprehensive Measurement of Atmospheric Aerosols with a Wide Range Aerosol Spectrometer
A wide range aerosol spectrometer (WRAS) was used for comprehensive long term measurements of aerosol size distributions. The system combines the results of an optical aerosol spectrometer with the results of a Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer (SMPS) to record essentially the full size range (5 nm – 32 μm) of atmospheric particles in 72 channels. Measurements were carried out over one year (200...
متن کاملUsing MODIS data for nonlinear hazard analysis of the Middle East aerosols
Aerosols are among the most important of atmospheric pollutants observed like the microscopic particulate matter in the lower parts of the troposphere. The main purpose of this study is introducing a new method based on satellite images processing results and nonlinear analysis (fractal based) to investigate the origin and dynamical mechanism of aerosols distribution in North Africa and the Mid...
