A novel method for deriving the aerosol hygroscopicity parameter based only on measurements from a humidified nephelometer system

Aerosol hygroscopicity is crucial for understanding roles of aerosol particles in atmospheric chemistry and aerosol climate effects. Light-scattering enhancement factor <i>f</i>(RH, <i>λ</i>) is one of the parameters describing aerosol hygroscopicity, which is defined as...
