In-situ airborne observations of the microphysical properties of the Arctic tropospheric aerosol during late spring and summer
In-situ aerosol data collected in the Arctic troposphere during a three-week period in 2004 were analysed. The measurements took place during late spring, i.e., at the time of the year when the characteristics of the aerosol distribution change from being accumulation-mode dominated to being primari...
