The Organic Surfactant Pool on Secondary Organic Aerosol Particles

Lead Institution

Northwestern University

Principal Investigator

Franz Geiger

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) particles particles rank among the least understood atmospheric constituents in the climate system. Key questions concern their poorly quantified roles in cloud…

Organic enrichment of sea spray aerosols: from the air-water interface to spray generation

Lead Institution

Montana State University

Principal Investigator

Robert Walker

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

This proposal describes coupled studies intended to identify and quantify the origin of organic solutes in sea spray aerosols (SSA) and to predict the consequences of aerosol organic enrichment on…

Building a Predictive Understanding of Particle-Based Mineral Growth

Lead Institution

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

Principal Investigator

James De Yoreo

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Traditional models of mineral formation through monomer-by-monomer addition have been challenged by recent evidence for crystallization through the addition of "particles," ranging from…

Structure and Chemistry at the Buried Solid/Aqueous Solution Interfaces with Advanced Surface Nonlinear Spectroscopy

Lead Institution

Fudan University

Principal Investigator

Hongfei Wang

Solid/aqueous solution interface are ubiquitous and important in energy and environmental research. We propose to investigate benchmark systems in the interface sciences to find novel applications of…
