Abstract. Atmospheric aerosol particle number concentrations impact our climate and health in ways different from those of aerosol mass concentrations. However, the global, current and future anthropogenic particle number emissions and their size distributions are so far poorly known. In this article, we present the implementation of particle number emission factors and the related size distributions in the GAINS (Greenhouse Gas–Air Pollution Interactions and Synergies) model. This implementation allows for global estimates of particle number emissions under different future scenarios, consist

This presentation will summarize fourteen years of research on the physical and chemical nature of particulates suspended in the earths atmosphere utilizing scanning electron microscopy and, to a lesser extent, transmission electron microscopy. Topics to be discussed include (1) the rationale for using electron microscopy to study airborne particulates, (2) methods for collecting airborne particulates, (3) methods of analysis and (4) a summary of results. Examples will demonstrate how conclusions about the nature and source of collected particles can differ between bulk sample analyses and dis

Abstract:

The character of atmospheric pollution and its impact on surface waters may vary substantially in space, and hence, we add a potentially important location for the studies of atmospheric air pollution to the map of the High Arctic. We have investigated the anthropogenic particle characteristics and selected persistent organic pollutant concentrations, in a priorly unmonitored location in the Arctic (Svalbard), exposed to a climatic gradient. Single-particle analysis of PM indicates that besides the prevailing natural aerosol particles, anthropogenic ones were present. The likely anthropogenic

The present study applied a non-invasive method to analyse anthropogenic particles and prey items in white stork (Ciconia ciconia) pellets.

The majority of particles were fragments, while previous studies on other birds often reported fibres.

In urban environments, a significant portion of atmospheric aerosols are of organic composition with the secondary organic aerosol (SOA) fraction being one of the most important but least understood. This work examines SOA production in a smog chamber using a-pinene and isoprene as biogenic precursors and particle-free ambient urban air as anthropogenic emissions. The observations revealed that the SOA formation is controlled by the components present in the matrix and a-pinene or isoprene affect the reaction processes in such a way that the SOA concentration is either increased or decreased.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Reservoir in-situ stresses continuously evolve during the reservoir life cycle because of the production of hydrocarbons, injection of water and CO2 for enhanced oil recovery, storage of CO2, and nuclear waste disposal. The induced changes to the stress state deform the reservoir rock, including the pores and fractures in the rock, and hence change the permeability of the rock. Studies demonstrate that grain size significantly affects the mechanical properties and strength of rock, yet little research exists on the effect of grain size on stress-sensitive seepage behavior.

Abstract:

An overview of modern approaches to the problem of parametrisation of sources of marine waters microplastics pollution from the coastline is conducted. The estimates of Europe’s plastic production along with mismanaged plastic waste percentage that might be the source of microplastics particles input to marine environment are presented. A semi-empirical for-mulation for the particles source intensity is suggested. It considers the main factors of local anthropogenic pressure for the coastal spot location for the given coordinates. Both ad-vantages and disadvantages of such an approach along wi

Abstract:

Metallic residues are distributed heterogeneously onto small-arms range soils from projectile fragmentation upon impact with a target or berm backstop. Incremental Sampling Methodology (ISM) can address the spatially heterogeneous contamination of surface soils on small-arms ranges, but representative kilogram-sized ISM subsamples are affected by the range of metallic residue particle sizes in the sample. This study compares the precision and concentrations of metals in a small-arms range soil sample processed by a puck mill, ring and puck mill, ball mill, and mortar and pestle prior to analys
