A Microscopic View on Aerosols

Research output: Contribution to journalConference abstract in journalResearchpeer-review

Abstract

Atmospheric aerosol particles have a major influence on climate both through direct interaction with sunlight and their role in cloud formation and growth. The fate of particles in the atmosphere are governed by their physical and chemical properties.However, these properties are highly complex, as particles can vary individually in size, shape, composition, and physical state. The properties may even change over time due to evaporation, condensation, and oxidation processes caused by a constant equilibrium with the ever changing atmospheric environment. Due to this complexity, aerosol particles are among the major uncertainties in current climate models and predictions of global warming.
