Assessment of personal exposure to particle and gaseous air pollutants in residences and offices

Maria Viviana Gonzalez Serrano

Poor indoor air quality has been associated with health issues and decreased work performance. Personal exposure that takes place both in outdoor and indoor environments is the result of dy-namic processes and complex interactions between people and surrou ...

Source and Chemistry of Hydroxymethanesulfonate (HMS) in Fairbanks, Alaska

Athanasios Nenes

Fairbanks, Alaska, is a subarctic city with fine particle (PM2.5) concentrations that exceed air quality regulations in winter due to weak dispersion caused by strong atmospheric inversions, local emissions, and the unique chemistry occurring under the col ...

Automated identification of local contamination in an Arctic aerosol time series

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada

A common challenge of Atmospheric measurements in remote environments is to identify local pollution from nearby sources. During the MOSAiC (Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate) expedition, we measured aerosol and gaseous ...
