Treating absorption and scattering in equal measure, this self-contained, interdisciplinary study examines and illustrates how small particles absorb and scatter light. The authors emphasize that any discussion of the optical behavior of small particles is inseparable from a ful…

Aerosols: science and engineering
Aerosols: science and engineering
Up-to-date information-nine new chapters cover recent developments and research, with several chapters focusing solely on the fast-developing areas of man-made and naturally occurring nanoparticles, to keep readers aware of advances in the field. Multidisciplinary coverage-of t…
Enteric Viruses in Aquatic Environments
This thesis has two themes. Firstly, it concerns the original application of holographic beam shaping, employed through the methods associated with optical manipulation, to three microscopic fields of research. Secondly, it studies the optical trapping of aerosol droplets throug…
This thesis details the ACTIVE campaign in the tropics of northern Australia during 2005-2006 (based in Darwin). The focus of the campaign was to find the influence of tropical convection on the aerosol and chemical content of the Tropical Tropopause Layer [TTL] and the cirrus c…
The complexity of the processes whereby organic species are degraded in the atmosphere prevents many of the individual species (intermediates or products) from being unambiguously identified. Laboratory work necessarily focuses therefore on studies of idealised proxies with the …
