Integrated Aerodynamic/Electrochemical Microsystem for Collection and Detection of Nanogram-level Airborne Bioaccessible Metals
Jian Wang, Christian Ludwig, Tianyu Cen, Jiukai Tang
The soluble fraction of aerosol particulate matter containing trace metals has the potential to engender toxicity and exacerbate the adverse health effects of particulate matter. In this study, an inertial-impaction-based fluidic chip integrated with elect ...
2022Northern Hemisphere atmospheric history of carbon monoxide since preindustrial times reconstructed from multiple Greenland ice cores
Two Himalayan ice cores display a factor-two decreasing trend of air content over the past two millennia, in contrast to the relatively stable values in Greenland and Antarctica ice cores over the same period. Because the air content can be related with th ...
Copernicus GmbH2022Black carbon and dust in the Third Pole glaciers: revaluated concentrations, mass absorption cross-sections and contributions to glacier ablation
Julia Schmale, Yang Li, Xinyang Li
In snow and ice, light-absorbing particles (LAPs), such as black carbon (BC) and dust, accelerate the melting of Third Pole glaciers (TPGs). In this study, we revaluated LAP concentrations in the snow pits of TPGs (SP-TPGs), measured LAP mass absorption cr ...
2021The embodied flow of built-up land in China?s interregional trade and its implications for regional carbon balance
Built-up land intensively concentrates human activities, and its area or the changes in its intensity dramatically affect the regional carbon balance. This study proposed a new framework to assess how in China, the interregional trade?s use of built-up lan ...
ELSEVIER2021Chemical and Microphysical State of the Central Arctic Atmosphere
Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada
The Arctic is warming three times faster than the rest of the planet. Increased areas of open ocean and changes in atmospheric transport pathways affect the Arctic atmospheric chemical and microphysical state, which themselves can modulate cloud, precipita ...
2021Differentiation of coarse-mode anthropogenic, marine and dust particles in the High Arctic islands of Svalbard
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 ...
2021The influence of chemical composition, aerosol acidity, and metal dissolution on the oxidative potential of fine particulate matter and redox potential of the lung lining fluid
Athanasios Nenes, Andrea Mario Arangio
Air pollution is a major environmental health risk and it contributes to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and excess mortality worldwide. The adverse health effects have been associated with the inhalation of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and indu ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2021Pan-Arctic seasonal cycles and long-term trends of aerosol properties from ten observatories
Julia Schmale, Jakob Boyd Pernov
Even though the Arctic is remote, aerosol properties observed there are strongly influenced by anthropogenic emissions from outside the Arctic. This is particularly true for the so-called Arctic haze season (January through April). In summer (June through ...
2021Coarse and Fine Particulate Organic Matter Transport by a Fourth-Order Mountain Stream to Lake Bourget (France)
Guillaume Gilbert René Cunillera
Transport of coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM) derived from forest litterfall has been hardly studied in rivers, unlike fine particulate organic matter (FPOM) or dissolved organic matter (DOM). Yet, many rivers are dammed or run into lakes, and ther ...
