Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University are improving weather forecasting models so that they better represent air ...

Aerosol light absorption plays a crucial role in regulating the heat balance between the atmosphere and Earth's surface. This happens through two main mechanisms: the aerosol direct effect, where ...

Their variability is due to the numerous sources and varying formation mechanisms (Figure 1). Aerosol particles are either emitted directly to the atmosphere (primary aerosols) or produced in the ...
