Comparison of five methodologies to apportion organic aerosol sources during a PM pollution event

D. Srivastava et al.

Summary: This study compares five methodologies for apportioning primary and secondary organic aerosol sources, finding some consistency in the estimates but discrepancies in highly oxidized organic aerosol (SOA). Recommendations include using a combination of methods for more reliable estimates.

Simultaneous Roadside and Urban Background Measurements of Submicron Aerosol Number Concentration and Size Distribution (in the Range 20-800 nm), along with Chemical Composition in Strasbourg, France

Melodie Chatain et al.

Summary: The study found significantly higher particle number concentrations of particles below 100 nm at the traffic site compared to the background site in the urban area of Strasbourg, highlighting the influence of road axis on ultrafine particles. It also showed that high PM10 mass concentrations were associated with larger particles contribution without specific chemical signature, while high PNC periods had a modified chemical composition with increased primary carbonaceous fraction.

Variability of the Atmospheric PM10 Microbiome in Three Climatic Regions of France

Abdoulaye Samake et al.

Summary: This study examines the relationship between Sugar Compounds (SC) concentrations in PM10 and the structure of airborne microbial communities at three sites in France under different climates. Results show that temporal changes in PM10-SC levels are associated with specific taxa of airborne fungi and bacteria, which vary significantly between the climatic regions studied. The study also finds that microbial communities associated with SC concentrations in PM10 remained stable in a rural area over a consecutive 2-year period.

One-year measurements of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) markers in the Paris region (France): Concentrations, gas/particle partitioning and SOA source apportionment

G. M. Lanzafame et al.

Summary: A study in the Paris region monitored twenty-five biogenic and anthropogenic secondary organic aerosol markers over one year, with seasonal and chemical patterns similar to Europe but different from America and Asia. Nitroaromatic compounds had higher concentrations in winter, while isoprene SOA marker concentrations increased in summer and pinene SOA markers showed no clear trend.
