Atmospheric aerosols, also known as atmospheric particulate matter (PM), are suspended particles (solid or liquid) in air, with diameters ranging from 1 nm to approximately 100 μm. PM affects the Earth’s radiative budget and thus global climate, via its so-called direct and indirect radiative effect...
