Distinct size dependence and diurnal variation of OA hygroscopicity, volatility, and CCN activity at a rural site in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region, China Mingfu Cai, Shan Huang, and Li Liu https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.18094277.v1
Short summary
This study investigated the size dependence and diurnal variation in organic aerosol hygroscopicity, volatility, and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity. We found that the physical properties of OA could vary in a large range at different particle sizes and affected the number concentration of CCN (NCCN) at all supersaturations. Our results highlight the importance of evaluating the atmospheric evolution processes of OA at different size ranges and their impact on climate effects.
This study investigated the size dependence and diurnal variation in organic aerosol...
