A Reevaluation of the Role of Thermophoresis as a Mechanism of In- and Below-Cloud Scavenging
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comparison is made of the roles played by thermophoresis, Brownian diffusion and diffusiophoresis in the precipitation scavenging of aerosol particles. It is shown, for a certain range of particles sizes, that thermophoresis ...
The Role of Research Measurement Networks as Contributions to Federal Assessments of Acid Deposition
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three demands for wet-deposition data and dry-deposition data are particularly important at the present time: 1) the analysis of long-term trends to evaluate the consequences of emission changes, 2) the measurement of ...
An Examination of Regional Pollutant Structure in the Lower Troposphere—Some Results of the Diagnostic Atmospheric Cross-Section Experiment (DACSE-I)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The diurnal variation of the structure of pollutant transport and diffusion in the Ohio River Valley is examined by combining meteorological cross sections with vertical profiles of several air pollutants. An increased ...
Quantifying and Minimizing Uncertainty of Climate Forcing by Anthropogenic Aerosols
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Anthropogenic aerosols are composed of a variety of aerosol types and components including water-soluble inorganic species (e.g., sulfate, nitrate, ammonium), condensed organic species, elemental or black carbon, and mineral ...
