A parameterization of sub-grid particle formation in sulfur-rich plumes for global- and regional-scale models

New-particle formation in the plumes of coal-fired power plants and other anthropogenic sulfur sources may be an important source of particles in the atmosphere. It remains unclear, however, how best to reproduce this formation in global and regional aerosol models with grid-box lengths that are ten...
