  2. 16. Alkali-containing aerosol particles-release during biomass combustion and ambient air concentrations

    Author : Borka Kovacevik; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosol; alkali metal; sodium; potassium; pyrolysis; combustion; biomass burning.;

    Abstract : Air pollution in the form of particles has considerable influence on human health and climate. Atmospheric aerosol particles arise from direct emissions of particles and from the conversion of certain gases to particles in the atmosphere. READ MORE

  4. 17. Aerosol impacts on subtropical low-level clouds: a satellite and modelling perspective

    Author : Alejandro Baró Pérez; Annica M.L. Ekman; Frida A.-M. Bender; Abhay Devasthale; Jens Redemann; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aerosol-cloud-radiation interactions; cloud microphysics; biomass burning; stratocumulus to cumulus transition; cloud radiative effect; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi;

    Abstract : Complex interactions between aerosols, clouds, and radiation impact Earth's climate. However, several aspects of these interactions remain uncertain, which has led to extensive research over the last decades. READ MORE

  5. 18. Chemical composition of Arctic aerosols and their link to clouds

    Author : Yvette Gramlich; Claudia Mohr; Paul Zieger; Ilona Riipinen; Ulrich Pöschl; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Arctic; aerosols; cloud residuals; mass spectrometry; biomass burning; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : The Arctic is a place particularly vulnerable to climate change, warming at an accelerated rate compared to the rest of the Earth. In this remote environment, the atmosphere, the ocean, the ice, and the land are all interlinked and are shaping a very complex system. READ MORE

  6. 19. Volatile Hydrocarbons in Ambient Air. Gas Chromatographic Assessment, Emissions and Human Exposure

    Author : Gunnar Barrefors; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; adsorbent sampling; 1; gas chromatography; biomass burning; Benzene; ethene; vehicle emissions; urban air; tobacco smoke; 3-butadiene;

    Abstract : Hydrocarbons in ambient air constitute a potential health risk for a large number of individuals. The work reported in this thesis focusses on human exposure to volatile hydrocarbons in ambient air. The analytical determinations were made by adsorbent sampling followed by thermal desorption and gas chromatography. READ MORE
