    Global organic and inorganic aerosol hygroscopicity and its effect on radiative forcing

    The climate effects of atmospheric aerosol particles serving as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) depend on chemical composition and hygroscopicity, which are highly variable on spatial and temporal scales. Here...
