Marine biogenic sea spray aerosol as seeds of ice in clouds
The formation of ice in clouds is fundamentally important to life on our planet since clouds play a key role in climate and hydrological cycle. Despite the significance of ice formation, our quantitative understanding of sources, properties, mode of action and transport of Ince-Nucleating Particles (INP) is poor. In order to improve our representation of clouds in models we need …

Världspremiär för film om polarforskning
Under Forskardagarna är det världspremiär för filmen om den internationella forskningsexpeditionen SWERUS-C3 till Arktis. Forskarna undersöker den metan som ligger bunden i permafrost och gashydrater i de svårtillgängliga öst-sibiriska grundhaven och avslöjar den arktiska havsisens historia. Filmen presenteras av Nina Kirchner, deltagare i expeditionen, docent i glaciologi och vetenskaplig föreståndare för Bolincentret för klimatforskning. “Minnen från expeditioner till så avlägsna …

GoAmazon 2014/15 Experiment: From Biogenic air pollution and aerosol processing
The GoAmazon 2014/15 experiment (Observations and Modeling of the Green Ocean Amazon) was a great opportunity to study how urbanisation can change aerosol properties under pristine conditions in a tropical rain forest. The experiment too place rom January 2014 to December 2015 in the vicinity of Manaus, Brazil, where seven sampling stations were operated. Properties analysed were size distribution, organic …
