Regional new particle formation as modulators of cloud condensation nuclei and cloud droplet number in the eastern Mediterranean

Regional new particle formation as modulators of cloud condensation nuclei and cloud droplet number in the eastern Mediterranean

<p>A significant fraction of atmospheric particles that serve as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are thought to originate from the condensational growth of new particle formation (NPF) from the gas phase. Here, 7 years of continuous aerosol and meteorological measurements (June 2008 to May 201...
