Continuous observations from horizontally pointing lidar, weather parameters and PM2.5: a pre-deployment assessment for monitoring radioactive dust in Fukushima, Japan

“…Aerosols can be transported from their sources, which include natural (e.g., volcanos, dust, ocean) and anthropogenic emissions, to different locations and are susceptible to environmental and weather conditions. Other studies have shown that aerosols and their optical properties in a particular area show seasonality (Humphries et al, 2023;Orikasa et al, 2020;Jain et al, 2020;Cigánková et al, 2021).…”

The Relationship of Aerosol Properties and Ice‐Nucleating Particle Concentrations in Beijing

“…Anthropogenic aerosols contain a very complicated mixture of elemental carbon, organic, and inorganic materials. Recent studies have found that anthropogenic aerosols have lower INAS density than dust particles at temperatures below −15°C (Bi et al., 2019; Orikasa et al., 2020).…”
