Now, experiments at Harvard, using particles of α-pinene SOM and adipic acid, have shown that a drop in humidity can send these common aerosols into a jelly-like phase, in which they resist ...

The spatial distribution of ambient aerosol particles plays a huge role in aerosol–radiation–cloud interactions; however, not enough sampling has been done from the atmospheric boundary layer ...

Atmospheric aerosol particles exert a strong net cooling effect on the climate by making clouds brighter and more extensive, reflecting more sunlight back out to space. However, how aerosol ...

Putting aerosols in the stratosphere to reflect sunlight could prevent the shutdown of key ocean currents, but only if it is ...

Clouds play an important role in regulating the climate. Bright ones at low altitudes generally reflect solar energy away, ...

Aerosol particles play important roles in radiation transport within the atmosphere, as toxic substances, as cloud condensation nuclei, and as vehicles for long range transport of various substances.
