Short summary
In boreal region, emissions from plants contribute to formation and growth of aerosol particles. Measurements suggest that concentration of small ions, which could be produced locally, differ in forests and agricultural fields. As a step to interpretation, we explain the concept of local aerosol production and estimate a spatial scale of an ecosystem needed to produce small ions. This scale is about few km in open areas such as agricultural fields and 500 m in the pine forest with closed canopy.
