Aerosol Impacts on Atmospheric and Precipitation Chemistry

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Atmospheric Chemistry in the Mediterranean Region

Abstract

This chapter summarizes current knowledge on the impact of aerosols on atmospheric chemistry and composition combining recent chamber, field, and modeling results focusing on the Mediterranean region. Particularly, the chapter addresses issues related to heterogeneous reactions on aerosol surfaces, attenuation of solar radiation and its effect on key atmospheric species, and aerosol formation from gaseous precursors. Finally, the effects of strong acidity on the composition and amounts of semi-volatile aerosol and the concentration of trace nutrients and toxic soluble metals are discussed.

Chapter reviewed by Frank J. Dentener (Joint Research Centre (JRS), European Commission,Ispra (VA), Italy), as part of the book Part IX Impacts of Air Pollution on Precipitation Chemistry and Climate also reviewed by Lucia Mona (CNR/IMAA, Tito Scalo (PZ), Italy)
