Tropical regions like the Amazon exhibit high concentrations of aerosol particles in the upper troposphere, puzzling ...

A considerable fraction of the mass of secondary aerosols is formed through cloud processing (Ervens et al. 2011). Secondary aerosols are small; they range in size from a few nanometres up to 1 ...

Why are there so many newly formed aerosol particles in the upper troposphere over tropical regions such as the Amazon?

Clouds and aerosols are ubiquitous in planetary atmospheres, where they impact climate, atmospheric chemistry, remote sensing, and weather. Clouds are a vital link in the global and regional weather ...

The rainforest in the Amazon basin transpires vast amounts of gaseous isoprene. Until now, it was assumed that this molecule ...

Chinese researchers have modeled the impacts of clouds and aerosols on PV potential in southern China and northern India, which are similar in terms of latitude and elevation. They found that ...

Areas downwind of pollutant-generating factories were found to have more snowfall, with aerosols suspected of triggering ice formation in clouds.

A research team led by EPFL scientists has developed a system that provides key insight into the relationship between sea ...

For many years, the North Atlantic Ocean warmed more slowly than other parts of the world. In 2023, that changed — ...

In a new weekly update for pv magazine, Solcast, a DNV company, reports that November proved challenging for solar energy ...
