Towards understanding the characteristics of new particle formation in the Eastern Mediterranean

To quantify the contribution of new particle formation (NPF) to ultrafine particle number and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) budgets, one has to understand the mechanisms that govern NPF in different environments and its temporal extent. Here, we study NP ...

Differentiation of coarse-mode anthropogenic, marine and dust particles in the High Arctic islands of Svalbard

Julia Schmale

Understanding aerosol–cloud–climate interactions in the Arctic is key to predicting the climate in this rapidly changing region. Whilst many studies have focused on submicrometer aerosol (diameter less than 1 µm), relatively little is known about the super ...

Source apportionment of atmospheric P using the Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) model

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki, Christos Panagiotopoulos

The PMF receptor model was applied to a combined dataset using specific markers such as phospholipids and sugars together with other metals (e.g. Al, Pb, V) and ions (e.g. K+, Ca2+, SO42-, NO3-) as tracers of main aerosol sources in order to characterize t ...

A risk-based multi-level stress test methodology: application to six critical non-nuclear infrastructures in Europe

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Daniela Rodrigues

Recent natural disasters that seriously affected critical infrastructure (CI) with significant socio-economic losses and impact revealed the need for the development of reliable methodologies for vulnerability and risk assessment. In this paper, a risk-bas ...

Fine Particle Iron in Soils and Road Dust Is Modulated by Coal-Fired Power Plant Sulfur

Athanasios Nenes

Transition metal ions, such as water-soluble iron (WS-Fe), are toxic components of fine particles (PM2.5). In Atlanta, from 1998 to 2013, a previous study found that WS-Fe was the PM2.5 species most associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. We exami ...

Retrieval of ice-nucleating particle concentrations from lidar observations and comparison with UAV in situ measurements

Athanasios Nenes, Dimitra Mamali

Aerosols that are efficient ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are crucial for the formation of cloud ice via heterogeneous nucleation in the atmosphere. The distribution of INPs on a large spatial scale and as a function of height determines their impact on ...

Reviews and syntheses: the GESAMP atmospheric iron deposition model intercomparison study

Athanasios Nenes

This work reports on the current status of the global modeling of iron (Fe) deposition fluxes and atmospheric concentrations and the analyses of the differences between models, as well as between models and observations. A total of four global 3-D chemistr ...

Tritium retention characteristics in dust particles in JET with ITER-like wall

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Martinus Gijs, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

A tritium imaging plate technique (TIPT) in combination with an electron-probe microscopic analysis (EPMA) were applied to examine tritium (T) retention characteristics in individual dust particles collected in the Joint European Torus with the ITER-like W ...

Enhanced Iron Solubility at Low pH in Global Aerosols

Athanasios Nenes, Kalliopi Violaki, Yan Feng

The composition and oxidation state of aerosol iron were examined using synchrotron-based iron near-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy. By combining synchrotron-based techniques with water leachate analysis, impacts of oxidation state and mineralogy on aer ...

Simulating Biogenic Secondary Organic Aerosol During Summertime in China

Yun Seong Song, Athanasios Nenes, Mengmeng Li

Biogenic secondary organic aerosol (BSOA) contributes significantly to summertime organic particulate matter. In this study, a simulation of BSOA for summer 2012 over China is performed using the Community Multiscale Air Quality model with an explicit repr ...
