Organic condensation: a vital link connecting aerosol formation to cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) concentrations

Atmospheric aerosol particles influence global climate as well as impair air quality through their effects on atmospheric visibility and human health. Ultrafine (<100 nm) particles often dominate aerosol numbers, and nucleation of atmospheric vapors is an important source of these particles....
