Particles play a crucial role in climate regulation, influencing processes such as cloud formation and radiation balance. Traditionally, research in urban environments has focused largely on primary ...

While braking in your car may protect you from accidents and save your life, it could actually be harmful to your health in other ways, new research has found. Particles released into the air as ...

Global measurements and model calculations show that the complex relationship between the chemistry and climate impact of aerosol particles can be successfully captured by a simple formula. The extent ...

A recent study has uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that the climate effects of new particles in urban areas have been significantly underestimated. Particles play a crucial role in climate ...

Scientists have found “strange quarks” that originated as virtual particles that sprang from nothing Quantum physics paints a strange picture of the world, one filled with spooky connections, ...

Leipzig/Mainz. The extent to which aerosol particles affect the climate depends on how much water the particles can hold in the atmosphere. The capacity to hold water is referred to as hygroscopicity ...

Researchers performed the state-of-the-art instrumentation at the top of the Beijing Meteorological Tower to investigate the influence of new particles on cloud formation. Particles play a crucial ...
