Abstract: A model to derive functional relationships linking extinction (α) and backscatter (?) of continental and maritime aerosol at 532 nm is presented and tested. These relationships are needed to solve the single-wavelength ...

Abstract: Growth of nitric acid trihydrate (NAT) particles on background stratospheric aerosols is examined for an isolated air parcel cooled at a uniform rate. The free energy barrier against nucleation and rates of cooling are ...
