Study Notes
-
The particle water content and pH of aerosols are important parameters that affect heterogeneous chemistry and bioavailability of nutrients that profoundly impact cloud formation, atmospheric composition, and atmospheric fluxes of nutrients to ecosystems.
-
Aerosols in the eastern Mediterranean were found to be highly acidic with pH varying from 0.5 to 2.8 throughout the study period.
-
Organics contribute 27.5% to the total aerosol water, mostly during early morning, late evening, and nighttime hours.
