Water uptake by biomass burning aerosol at sub- and supersaturated conditions: closure studies and implications for the role of organics
We investigate the CCN activity of freshly emitted biomass burning particles and their hygroscopic growth at a relative humidity (RH) of 85%. The particles were produced in the Mainz combustion laboratory by controlled burning of various wood types. The water uptake at sub- and supersaturations is p...
