Aerosol Hygroscopic Growth in Marine and Continental Air
(2013-09-24)Aerosol particulate matter contributes significantly to the global climate directly, through scattering and absorption of solar radiation, and indirectly, through changing cloud reflectance and cloud cover persistence. ... -
Chemical nature and sources of particulate matter in urban areas
(NUI Galway, 2019-05-07)Particulate matter (PM) air pollution adversely affects human health and can lead to premature deaths. The sources of air pollution, however, remain poorly understood especially in urban areas with intense human activities. ... -
New Particle Formation in Marine Air
(2012-11-28)Marine aerosols contribute significantly to global climate directly by absorbing or scattering solar radiation, as well as indirectly by altering the reflectance and persistence of clouds. This work presents results of ... -
Remote sensing and in-situ characterisation of atmospheric aerosol pollution
(2017-05-08)This work focuses on characterising various aspects of clean-background and polluted aerosol, mainly focusing on the North East Atlantic and Europe, using a range of in-situ and remote sensing instrumentation. Prior to ...
