Michelle Bardales Cruz et al.
Domestic, or household-level, open burning of plastic waste is a source of air pollutants and greenhouse gases that are often neglected in emission inventories. Domestic open burning is a considerable concern in Guatemala due to the lack of...
Evaluation of airborne particulates and associated metals originating from steel slag applied to rural unpaved roads [0.03%]
钢渣应用于农村未铺砌道路产生的气溶胶颗粒物及伴生金属的评估
James Kacer,Ralph Altmaier,Drew Latta et al.
James Kacer et al.
Various metals have toxic effects by the inhalation route, and electric arc furnace (EAF) steel slag is known to contain metals with a potential for toxicity to humans. In some states, EAF slag is applied to unpaved (gravel) roads as a low-...
Effect of OH scavengers on the chemical composition of α-pinene secondary organic aerosol [0.03%]
羟基清除剂对α-蒎烯二次有机气溶胶化学组成的影响
David M Bell,Veronika Pospisilova,Felipe Lopez-Hilfiker et al.
David M Bell et al.
OH scavengers are extensively used in studies of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) because they create an idealized environment where only a single oxidation pathway is occurring. Here, we present a detailed molecular characterization of SOA ...
Development of Volatility Distributions for Organic Matter in Biomass Burning Emissions [0.03%]
生物质燃烧排放的有机物质挥发性分布的发展

Aditya Sinha et al.
The volatility distribution of organic emissions from biomass burning and other combustion sources can determine their atmospheric evolution due to partitioning/aging. The gap between measurements and models predicting secondary organic aer...
The driving effects of common atmospheric molecules for formation of prenucleation clusters: the case of sulfuric acid, formic acid, nitric acid, ammonia, and dimethyl amine [0.03%]
常见大气分子对前核簇形成驱动作用:以硫酸、甲酸、硝酸、氨和二甲胺为例
Conor J Bready,Vance R Fowler,Leah A Juechter et al.
Conor J Bready et al.
How secondary aerosols form is critical as aerosols' impact on Earth's climate is one of the main sources of uncertainty for understanding global warming. The beginning stages for formation of prenucleation complexes, that lead to larger ae...

Here we demonstrate a method for performing X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) on airborne aerosols. XAS provides unique insight into elemental composition, chemical and phase state, local coordination and electronic structure of both crys...
Orcinol and resorcinol induce local ordering of water molecules near the liquid-vapor interface [0.03%]
Orcinol和resorcinol诱导液气界面附近的水分子局部有序排列
Huanyu Yang,Ivan Gladich,Anthony Boucly et al.
Huanyu Yang et al.
Resorcinol and orcinol are simple members of the family of phenolic compounds present in particulate matter in the atmosphere; they are amphiphilic in nature and thus surface active in aqueous solution. Here, we used X-ray photoelectron spe...
The oxidative potential of particulate matter (PM) in different regions around the world and its relation to air pollution sources [0.03%]
全球不同地区的颗粒物(PM)氧化潜力及其与空气污染来源的关系
Vahid Jalali Farahani,Abdulmalik Altuwayjiri,Milad Pirhadi et al.
Vahid Jalali Farahani et al.
In this study, we investigated the impact of urban emission sources on the chemical composition of ambient particulate matter (PM) as well as the associated oxidative potential. We collected six sets of PM samples in five urban location sit...
Secondary aerosol formation during the dark oxidation of residential biomass burning emissions [0.03%]
Residential生物质燃烧排放的暗氧化期间二次气溶胶形成
John K Kodros,Christos Kaltsonoudis,Marco Paglione et al.
John K Kodros et al.
Particulate matter from biomass burning emissions affects air quality, ecosystems and climate; however, quantifying these effects requires that the connection between primary emissions and secondary aerosol production is firmly established....
