Occurrence and growth of sub-50 nm aerosol particles in the Amazonian boundary layer

Occurrence and growth of sub-50 nm aerosol particles in the Amazonian boundary layer

<p>New particle formation (NPF), referring to the nucleation of molecular clusters and their subsequent growth into the cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) size range, is a globally significant and climate-relevant source of atmospheric aerosols. Classical NPF exhibiting continuous growth from a f...
