Air pollutions and measurements
Sampling of fine aerosols from various locations
Anthropogenic sources and biological sources emit copious quantities of fine aerosols and gaseous species. Atmospheric aerosols contain organic compounds, inorganic salts, black carbon, metals, and etc. These particles can affect climate, air quality, and health. We collect fine aerosols such as PM10 and PM2.5 from various locations.
Characterization of chemical compositions of fine aerosols
To characterize properties of aerosols and precursor gases to identify key processes of aerosol formation and removal, the chemical compositions of ambient aerosols such as organic carbons, elemental carbons, water-soluble inorganic ions, and metals and concentrations of precursor gases are analyzed.
