Abstract New particle formation (NPF) in the tropical upper troposphere is a globally important source of atmospheric aerosols 1–4 . It known to occur over Amazon basin, but nucleation mechanism and chemical precursors have yet be identified 2 Here we present comprehensive situ aircraft measurements showing that extremely low-volatile oxidation products isoprene, particularly certain organonitrates, drive NPF Amazonian troposphere. The organonitrates originate from OH-initiated isoprene...
Abstract. Global warming is amplified in the Arctic. However, numerical models struggle to represent key processes that determine Arctic weather and climate. To collect data help constrain models, HALO–(𝒜𝒞)3 aircraft campaign was conducted over Norwegian Greenland seas, Fram Strait, central Ocean March April 2022. The focused on one specific challenge posed by namely reasonable representation of transformations air masses during their meridional transport into out via northward moist-...
Abstract. The global warming is amplified in the Arctic. To collect data that help to constrain weather and climate models, which often do not realistically represent enhanced Arctic warming, HALO-(AC)³ aircraft campaign was conducted March April 2022 over Norwegian Greenland Seas, Fram Strait, central Ocean. Observations were made areas of open ocean, marginal sea ice zone, ice. Two low-flying one long-range, high-altitude research have been employed. Whenever possible, three flown...
Abstract. In this study, we present a fully automated aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) that is operated during regular passenger aircraft flights in the CARIBIC (Civil Aircraft for Regular Investigation of Atmosphere Based on an Instrument Container) part European Research Infrastructure IAGOS (In-service Global Observing System – www.iagos.org). The instrument, termed CARIBIC-AMS, able to measure concentration non-refractory species, namely sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, and organics, particle...
Abstract Lightning is the most important source of nitric oxide (NO) in tropical upper troposphere and controls formation tropospheric ozone (). It associated with deep convection occurs mostly over continents. The Chemistry Atmosphere Field Experiment Pacific (CAFE Pacific) was conducted early 2024 from Cairns, Australia, taking airborne measurements across Australian continent surrounding maritime regions. Based on cloud top properties, lightning data situ observations NO, carbon monoxide,...
The chemical composition, especially of aerosol particles, in the extratropical upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (exUTLS) plays a crucial role radiation budget atmosphere. This composition is affected by large-scale dynamics troposphere, additionally small-scale processes. effects particle number concentration as well lowermost (exLMS) are major research topic recent years. measurements presented this study were taken during TPEx campaign (Tropopause gradients mixing Experiment)...
The extratropical transition layer (ExTL), located above the tropopause, is an atmospheric region characterized by vertical gradients in composition, transitioning between tropospheric and deeper stratospheric properties. Since tropopause constitutes a mixing barrier under adiabatic conditions, existence of ExTL evidence diabatic processes influencing this region.Although not usually thought to occur cirrus clouds can be cause via radiative latent (microphysical) effects. Here we present two...
Convective overshoot can result in irreversible mixing of air from the troposphere into stratosphere, thereby influencing radiation balance this climate-sensitive region by altering greenhouse gas concentrations, particularly water vapor, and inducing ice aerosol particles stratosphere. This study examines cloud microphysical properties trace signatures associated with a convective event observed during TPex (TropoPause composition gradients Experiment) campaign June 2024 over southern...

Abstract. Aerosol particles in the extratropical upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (exUTLS) play a crucial role for Earth‘s radiative budget. High temporal spatial resolution measurements exUTLS are important to study mixing processes their climate impact. Here, we present from TPEx mission (Tropopause composition gradients Experiment) an aircraft June 2024 over Europe. The measurement platform, Learjet 35A, was equipped with in-situ trace gas aerosol filter samplers offline analysis....

Abstract. The chemical composition of the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere region (UTLS) is influenced by horizontal transport air masses, vertical within convective systems and warm conveyor belts, rapid turbulent mixing, as well photochemical production or loss species. This results in formation extratropical transition layer (ExTL), which defined structure CO has been studied until now mostly means trace gas correlations. Here, we extend analysis to include aerosol particles derive...
