Measuring and modeling the hygroscopic growth of two humic substances in mixed aerosol particles of atmospheric relevance

The hygroscopic growth of atmospheric particles affects atmospheric chemistry and Earth's climate. Water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC) constitutes a significant fraction of the dry submicron mass of atmospheric aerosols, thus affecting their water uptake properties. Although the WSOC fraction i...
