Volatile organic compounds and their role in secondary aerosol chemistry in a cold and dark urban environment

Abstract. Wintertime PM2.5 pollution is a longstanding issue in the urban subarctic environment such as Fairbanks, Alaska. While previous studies suggest that aldehydes may serve as precursors of S(IV) species in aerosols, the role of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions in...

Urban-to-downwind variations in aerosol composition and optical properties in the Paris urban plume from coordinated airborne and ground-based observations

Abstract. Aerosols play a critical role in Earth’s climate, but substantial evolution in their physicochemical properties after emission introduces uncertainties in predicting their climate impacts. Observational constraints on how aging modifies aerosol properties remain limited...
