Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In response to the escalating concerns surrounding air pollution and its detrimental impacts on human health and the global climate, this Special Issue of Atmosphere titled "Advancing Insights into Atmospheric Aerosols: Understanding Aerosol Formation, Characteristics, Sources and Mitigating Strategies" aims to catalyze discussions on recent advancements in the understanding of atmospheric aerosols and to provide a comprehensive platform for researchers to share their recent work. This Special Issue encourages researchers to delve into various aspects of aerosol science, including the formation mechanisms of aerosols, their physical and chemical properties, sources, etc. Authors are encouraged to discuss the implications of their findings for future aerosol research, air quality improvement, and potential abatement strategies. Through collaborative efforts, this Special Issue aims to advance our understanding of atmospheric aerosols and inform strategies for mitigating their adverse impacts on human health and the environment.
Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Investigation of ambient aerosols’ physical and chemical properties;
- Aerosol formation mechanism;
- Aerosol source apportionment;
- Aerosol toxicity;
- Strategies for mitigating aerosol pollution.
