Studying atmospheric particles from a microscopic perspective
Most of what is visible in the atmosphere—such as pollution, dust, haze, fog, and clouds—is due to micrometer- and nanometer-sized aerosol particles. It is important to understand the source, characteristics, and behavior of these small particles as they play a fundamental role in large-scale atmospheric processes.
Microanalysis of Atmospheric Particles: Techniques and Applications presents different microscopic techniques for studying aerosols and explores a range of applications in climate studies and air quality studies.
Volume highlights include:
- Overview of different techniques and applications
- In-depth descriptions of scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, Raman microspectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy
- Techniques for studying physical characteristics and chemical composition
- Methods to examine particle transformation
- Examples including soot, organic aerosols, ice crystals, and sea spray
- Applications for global and regional climate change and urban air quality
