Secondary aerosol formation during the dark oxidation of residential biomass burning emissions

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. We performed at ...

Bio accessibility of tire-associated organic chemicals in fish gut (Oncorhynchus mykiss): insights from an in vitro digestion model

Kristin Schirmer, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Thibault Béranger Masset

Tire and Road Wear Particles (TRWP) account for an important part of the anthropogenic particles released into the environment. There are scientific knowledge gaps as to the potential bio accessibility of chemicals associated with TRWP to aquatic organisms ...

Equal abundance of summertime natural and wintertime anthropogenic Arctic organic aerosols

Julia Schmale, Imad El Haddad, Houssni Lamkaddam, Pragati Rai

Aerosols play an important yet uncertain role in modulating the radiation balance of the sensitive Arctic atmosphere. Organic aerosol is one of the most abundant, yet least understood, fractions of the Arctic aerosol mass. Here we use data from eight obser ...

Breakdown of Reye's theory in nanoscale wear

Jean-François Molinari, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez, Tobias Brink

Building on an analogy to ductile fracture mechanics, we quantify the size of debris particles created during adhesive wear. Earlier work suggested a linear relation between tangential work and wear debris volume, assuming that the debris size is proportio ...

A lattice Boltzmann model for self-diffusiophoretic particles near and at liquid-liquid interfaces

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

We introduce a novel mesoscopic computational model based on a multiphase-multicomponent lattice Boltzmann method for the simulation of self-phoretic particles in the presence of liquid-liquid interfaces. Our model features fully resolved solvent hydrodyna ...

Seasonal variation of airborne coarse and fluorescent particles

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Nora Bergner, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada, Margarida Teles Nogueira Rolo

Coarse mode aerosols receive relatively little attention in Arctic atmospheric research compared to smaller aerosol populations. However, coarse mode particles have important implications for aerosol-radiation interactions as well as aerosol-cloud interact ...

Aqueous-phase reactive species formed by fine particulate matter from remote forests and polluted urban air

Andrea Mario Arangio, Ting Zhang, Jing Li

In the aqueous phase, fine particulate matter can form reactive species (RS) that influence the aging, properties, and health effects of atmospheric aerosols. In this study, we explore the RS yields of aerosol samples from a remote forest (Hyytiala, Finlan ...

Characterization of primary and aged wood burning and coal combustion organic aerosols in an environmental chamber and its implications for atmospheric aerosols

Satoshi Takahama, Imad El Haddad, Nikunj Dudani, Amir Yazdani

Particulate matter (PM) affects visibility, climate, and public health. Organic matter (OM), a uniquely complex portion of PM, can make up more than half of total atmospheric fine PM mass. We investigated the effect of aging on secondary organic aerosol (S ...
