The state of the aerosol: Musings on mixing state

Research output: Contribution to journalEditorialpeer-review

Abstract

Each particle of an atmospheric aerosol is composed of multiple chemical components, and a variety of particle compositions are present within a particle population. This fact poses unique challenges to modelers and experimentalists who strive to ultimately quantify the impact of aerosols on human health and on climate. This editorial lays out some fundamentals for how to think about the aerosol state and explores implications of the emergent aerosol property called aerosol mixing state.
