Sentences with phrase «primary organic aerosols»

Topics that I work on or plan to work in the future include studies of: + missing aerosol species and sources, such as the primary oceanic aerosols and their importance on the remote marine atmosphere, the in - cloud and aerosol water aqueous formation of organic aerosols that can lead to brown carbon formation, the primary terrestrial biological particles, and the organic nitrogen + missing aerosol parameterizations, such as the effect of aerosol mixing on cloud condensation nuclei and aerosol absorption, the semi-volatility of primary organic aerosols, the importance of in - canopy processes on natural terrestrial aerosol and aerosol precursor sources, and the mineral dust iron solubility and bioavailability + the change of aerosol burden and its spatiotemporal distribution, especially with regard to its role and importance on gas - phase chemistry via photolysis rates changes and heterogeneous reactions in the atmosphere, as well as their effect on key gas - phase species like ozone + the physical and optical properties of aerosols, which affect aerosol transport, lifetime, and light scattering and absorption, with the latter being very sensitive to the vertical distribution of absorbing aerosols + aerosol - cloud interactions, which include cloud activation, the aerosol indirect effect and the impact of clouds on aerosol removal + changes on climate and feedbacks related with all these topics In order to understand the climate system as a whole, improve the aerosol representation in the GISS ModelE2 and contribute to future IPCC climate change assessments and CMIP activities, I am also interested in understanding the importance of natural and anthropogenic aerosol changes in the atmosphere on the terrestrial biosphere, the ocean and climate.

Organic aerosols that are directly injected in the atmosphere in the particulate phase are called primary organic aerosols (POA), while those that are created by the oxidation of volatile organic compounds are known as secondary organic aerosols (SOA).

The CARES field campaign was designed to increase scientific knowledge about the evolution of black carbon, primary organic aerosols (POA), and secondary organic aerosols (SOA) from both human - caused and natural (biogenic) sources.

Carbonaceous PM is made up of black carbon, primary organic aerosol (POA) and, especially, secondary organic aerosol (SOA), which is known to contain harmful reactive oxygen species and can damage lung tissue.

BC FF is for black carbon from fossil fuel and biofuel, POA FF is for primary organic aerosol from fossil fuel and biofuel, BB is for biomass burning aerosols and SOA is for secondary organic aerosols.»

Not exact matches

This provides a new insight into the conventional belief that tree leaves are the primary source of organic gases and aerosols which can affect the cloud formation.

The largest portion of these submicron aerosols is organic, or carbon - containing, and is classified as two kinds: primary and secondary.

All variables» short names that contained «pom» (total particulate organic matter aerosol) were changed to «oa» versions (total particulate organic matter aerosol) to conform to the CMIP5 tables, and to avoid confusion with «poa» (primary particulate organic matter aerosol).

In general, primary aerosol components (black carbon, hydrocarbon - like organic aerosol and biomass burning organic aerosol) dominated the local traffic and wood burning emissions whereas secondary components (oxygenated organic aerosol, nitrate, ammonium, and sulfate) dominated the PM1 chemical composition during the LRT episode.
