Hygroscopic growth of urban aerosol particles in Beijing (China) during wintertime: a comparison of three experimental methods

The hygroscopic properties of atmospheric aerosols are highly relevant for the quantification of radiative effects in the atmosphere, but also of interest for the assessment of particle health effects upon inhalation. This article reports measurements of aerosol particle hygroscopicity in the highly...
