Low hygroscopic scattering enhancement of boreal aerosol and the implications for a columnar optical closure study

Ambient aerosol particles can take up water and thus change their optical properties depending on the hygroscopicity and the relative humidity (RH) of the surrounding air. Knowledge of the hygroscopicity effect is of crucial importance for radiative forcing calculations and is also needed for the co...
