Understanding the interaction between atmospheric aerosol and water vapour is key in assessing the impacts of anthropogenic influences on the earth's radiative budget, both directly through scattering and absorbing incident solar radiation, and indirectly through changing cloud …

The basic as well as applied research and control strategies in indoor and outdoor atmospheric environments could not progress without well-developed and effective methods for the chemical analysis of aerosols. Analytical Chemistry of Aerosols shows the existing procedures and t…
Certain N95 FFR models that staple the head straps directly onto filtering material are commercially available. This method of assembly can tear or reduce fiber density in the immediate area surrounding the staple punctures. Five N95 FFR models were evaluated to determine if sta…
The first part of the thesis assesses the aerosol direct radiative effect (ADRE) with a focus on ground-based AERONET and satellite MODIS measurements. The AERONET aerosol climatology is used, in conjunction with surface albedo and cloud products from MODIS, to calculate the ADR…
High-latitude volcanic eruptions can significantly impact the climate system. Simulations were conducted with the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) modelE general circulation model of the Katmai (58°N) as well as one with 3x the optical depth of Katmai (3x Katmai), and …
Most air quality studies have focused on sites located in either rural or urban areas. However, many regions are affected by air from both, such as the city of El Paso. Adjacent to the neighboring city of Juarez, Mexico, and in close proximity to rural areas, El Paso is affected…
Atmospheric sampling of aerosol was carried out from ships during four separate month-long research cruises over remote oceanic regions. Three cruises took place in the Arabian Sea, during the inter-, SW- and NE-monsoons. An additional cruise was focused on the tropical North At…
"Occupational Exposure Assessment for Air Contaminants addresses the various aspects of occupational exposure assessment for air contaminants as a coherent body of knowledge. It is the first book to explore occupational air contaminant measurement and properties, human exposure …
