One of those complex interactions is
aerosols, the
microscopic particles of dust, soot, and chemicals dispersed in the atmosphere that scatter or absorb sunlight and act as seeds for cloud formation.
Aerosols, or
microscopic particles like soot or black carbon in the air, occur naturally but have also been increasing due to human activities since the industrial revolution.
Several proposals call for injecting
microscopic particles, called
aerosols, into the stratosphere, the quiet region of the atmosphere above the troposphere about 18 kilometers up from the equator.
In addition to the complex physics of fog formation and transport, recent research suggests that
microscopic aerosol particles may be critical players in fog dynamics and its effect on coastal human and ecological systems.
