Viscous organic aerosol particles in the upper troposphere: diffusivity-controlled water uptake and ice nucleation?

New measurements of water diffusion in secondary organic aerosol (SOA) material produced by oxidation of α-pinene and in a number of organic/inorganic model mixtures (3-methylbutane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid (3-MBTCA), levoglucosan, levoglucosan/NH<sub>4</sub>HSO<sub>4<...
