    Notes: Abstract In 1975, aerosols were collected with high-volume-samplers and impactors on the west coast of Ireland. The ether extractable organic material (EEOM) was separated into three main fractions: bases (B), acids (A), and neutral compounds (N). Each fraction is a very complex mixture of numerous species. Detailed investigations were carried out on these three main fractions. The individual species were determined quantitatively by gas chromatography. Qualitative identification was done by combined GC-MS. The concentration of total particulate matter (TPM) was in the range of 10 μg/m3 (STP) air and the concentration of EEOM was ≈1 μg/m3. The relative composition of the EEOM with regard to the main fractions A, B, and N was N〉A〉B — the same as in previous measurements. Particles with radii 〈1 μm were investigated separately and showed an enrichment in organic matter. A comparison of individual species from several sample locations is now possible for then-paraffins C10 to C28. The concentrations of all thesen-paraffins are below 10 ng/m3, with no overall obvious preference for specific compounds and no obvious dependence on particle size above or below 1 μm radius. A preliminary survey does not show any characteristic differences in the relative composition of the organic constituents of clean air aerosols from different sampling localities. The relative composition with regard to the three main fractions is rather uniform in clean air samples and in samples from polluted regions.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of atmospheric aerosols on the temperatures of a zonal average climate model is investigated. This is done by introducing into the climate model the results of extensive calculations of the effect of aerosols on the partitioning of solar radiation. Calculations are performed for a non-absorbing and a sloghtly absorbing aerosol, for average and for heavy aerosol amounts. The results indicate that the presence of atmospheric aerosols causes a cooling of the earth's surface and atmosphere, at all latitudes, with aerosol amounts, especially for the absorbing aerosols. The results are compared with some of the previous estimates of aerosol effects on climate.

    Notes: Abstract It could be shown by measurements of the air conductivity and using a mean profile for the ionization rate that experimental and theoretical values of the recombination rate of small ions based on a three body recombination process (Thomson) are in very good agreement up to 20 km altitude. The divergency of the experimental and theoretical curves above 20 km can be interpreted by assuming that there exists in this altitude region a crossover from the three body recombination to a two body recombination process. The value of the recombination coefficient is about 4·10−7 cm3 s−1 in 25 km altitude, compared with 1.4·10−6 cm3 s−1 at ground level. Furtheron it was possible for the first time to get some experimental data of attachment coefficients up to 13 km from simultaneous measurements of the air conductivity and Aitken nuclei concentration. These values are in good agreement with those obtained by theoretical considerations.

    Notes: Summary In this study, values of the Ångström turbidity coefficient (β) determined from Solar radiation observations at the National Observatory of Athens over the period 1955–1972 are analysed. Mean daily turbidity lies between 0.020–0.100. Turbidity is higher in summer than in winter. The main factor determining the turbidity is the air mass type. The scavenging by rainfall probably has a considerable effect in determining this distribution. There is some evidence of a trend of increasing turbidity during the period.

    Notes: Abstract For a period of approximately six months the concentrations of airborne microorganisms were determined by the uptake of their day-characteristic at local places differing by the extent of air pollution. By simultaneously recording the meteorological parameters as temperature, relative humidity, direction and velocity of wind and intensity of solar radiation, it was intended to find out the relationship between these factors and the viability of airborne microorganisms. The present data show an oscillation of the concentration counts over a wide range and seem not yet to depend on the local situation of air pollution. In a further series of experiments the atmospheric aerosol 〈10 μm was collected on ‘air-filters’. The decreased substances were extracted from the filter material by aqueous and organic solutants and tested for their antimicrobial activities. In this context the seasonal dependence of the microbicidal activity of organic compounds of aerosol is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract We have speculated on the influence of organic material on extinction and absorption coefficients and liquid water content of fogs and of clouds immediately after their condensational stage. It results therefore, that the reduction of the speed of growth from fog to cloud droplets due to the presence of organic films largely reduces the properties mentioned. Compared to that their increase coming from the surface tension reduction due to organic material being dissolved or building up films is expected to be less effective.

    Notes: Abstract An estimated budget of organic substances in the atmosphere is compiled to whow the importance of organics in the aerosol. The distribution of organic compounds in background aerosols is estimated and it will be shown that the Aitken particles probably consist of roughly one quarter of organic substances. This is important for the dynamics of the aerosol and calculations are presented to estimate the aerosol production distribution for gas-to-particle conversion processes.
