Biomass-burning impact on CCN number, hygroscopicity and cloud formation during summertime in the eastern Mediterranean

This study investigates the concentration, cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity and hygroscopic properties of particles influenced by biomass burning in the eastern Mediterranean and their impacts on cloud droplet formation. Air masses sampled were subject to a range of atmospheric processin...
