Annual Aerosol Science Conference 2015

Organic compounds are ubiquitous in the lower atmosphere. Accommodation and reaction of vapours on atmospheric particles (aerosols, cloud droplets) represents an important transformation process for many organic molecules. This study presents novel laboratory measurements and detailed numerical modelling results which aim to better characterise particle-phase organic chemistry. In particular, the following questions are addressed:

  1. What are the timescales for different particle-phase reactions?
  2. How does aerosol chemical composition influence reactivity?

The Aerosol Society recognises the importance of our diverse community and believe that to produce the best quality science we must encourage a proactive and inclusive approach to equality. This can be achieved by developing and retaining a diverse range of talented people to achieve their full potential free from discrimination. We acknowledge our role in engaging with the wider aerosol science community to develop a fair and friendly environment by promoting equality, diversity and inclusion for all, recognising that we come from varying backgrounds and experiences.
