Lead Institution

University of California, Irvine

Principal Investigator

Barbara Finlayson-Pitts

Project type

Large-Scale EMSL Research

Understanding the processes involved in new particle formation (NPF) and growth in the atmosphere is critical for accurate predictions of their impacts on visibility, climate and health. Recent…
