Short summary

Airborne particles affect clouds, climate, and air quality, but it is difficult to determine how their chemical components are mixed within individual particles. We tested a method that estimates this mixing from water-uptake measurements using detailed computer simulations. The method works well in many cases, but can overestimate particle mixing when moderately water-attracting material exists in separate particle types. We then applied this uncertainty framework to long-term observations.
