Isotopic composition of aerosol iron from anthropogenic sources: implications for source apportionment of aerosol iron

Abstract. Aerosol iron (Fe) significantly impacts human health, atmospheric chemistry and marine biogeochemistry. The stable isotope ratio of Fe, typically reported as δ56Fe, has emerged as a promising method for source apportionment of total and soluble aerosol Fe. However, the...

Space‐Based Observation of Decadal Variations of Ammonium Sulfate Aerosols Over Northern China

Abstract The concentrations of ammonium sulfate, an important component of secondary inorganic aerosols, have dropped substantially in the North China Plain (NCP) over the past decade. However, current understanding of its variations is limited by the small number of ground‐based...

Rapid spontaneous generation of organosulfur from inorganic sulfur in atmospheric microdroplets

Abstract Organosulfur compounds are important constituents of atmospheric aerosols and have been extensively investigated through field observations, laboratory experiments, and atmospheric modeling. However, the mechanisms underlying their formation and atmospheric abundance rem...
