Do organics contribute to small particle formation in the Amazonian upper troposphere?
3-D cloud-resolving model simulations including explicit aerosol physics and chemistry are compared with observations of upper tropospheric (12 km) aerosol size distributions over the Amazon Basin. ...
Observational and modelling evidence of tropical deep convective clouds as a source of mid-tropospheric accumulation mode aerosols
High concentrations (up to 550 cm−3 STP) of aerosols in the accumulation mode (>0.12 μm) were observed by aircraft above 7.5 km altitude in the dynamically active regions of several deep convect ...
