Short summary
Atmospheric new particles formation plays an important role in air quality and climate change, but it does not always appear even in the similar situation. Using ground measurements and vertical observations, we found this process occurs only when the source increases while the sink weakens at the same time, which is mainly controlled by the development of the boundary layer. The finding helps us better understand particle formation in complex atmospheric environments.
