Intensive seasonal sampling campaigns were undertaken at an urban location in Birmingham, U.K., which high-volume samplers used to collect particulate- and vapor-phase polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by means of filter papers polyurethane foam plugs. Eighteen PAH species determined reversed-phase HPLC. Additionally, the suspended particle loading air was measured gravimetrically. Dichotomous stacked units (DSFUs) run simultaneously with high-volumes enabling collection particulate...
Abstract. Mobility particle size spectrometers often referred to as DMPS (Differential Particle Sizers) or SMPS (Scanning have found a wide range of applications in atmospheric aerosol research. However, comparability measurements conducted world-wide is hampered by lack generally accepted technical standards and guidelines with respect the instrumental set-up, measurement mode, data evaluation well quality control. Technical were developed for minimum requirement mobility spectrometry...
Background: There is a strong need for laboratory in vitro test systems the toxicity of airborne particulate matter and nanoparticles. The measurement oxidative stress potential offers promising way forward. Objectives:Aworkshop was convened involving leading workers from field order to review available methods generate Consensus Statement. Discussions: Workshop participants summarised their own research activities as well discussion relative merits different methods. Conclusions: In have an...

Atmospheric aerosol formation is known to occur almost all over the world, and importance of these particles climate air quality has been recognized. Although processes driving take place below a particle diameter 3 nanometers, observations cover only larger particles. We introduce an instrumental setup measure atmospheric concentrations both neutral charged nanometer-sized clusters. By applying instruments in field, we come three important conclusions: (i) A pool numerous clusters sub–3...
Size-fractionated samples of airborne particulate matter have been collected in a number campaigns at Marylebone Road, London and simultaneously background sites either Regents Park or North Kensington. Analysis these has enabled size distributions total mass elements to be determined, roadside increments attributable nonexhaust emissions arising from traffic activity calculated. Taking novel approach, the combined use distribution information tracer allowed separate estimation contributions...
Abstract. In this paper we describe and summarize the main achievements of European Aerosol Cloud Climate Air Quality Interactions project (EUCAARI). EUCAARI started on 1 January 2007 ended 31 December 2010 leaving a rich legacy including: (a) comprehensive database with year observations physical, chemical optical properties aerosol particles over Europe, (b) measurements in four developing countries, (c) airborne aerosols clouds Europe during May 2008, (d) modeling tools to study processes...
