Morphology of Surface Aerosol Particles in Moscow via Scanning Electron Microscopy

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract—

The morphology and composition of aerosol particles in the ground-level Moscow atmosphere have been studied by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray spectral microanalysis. The results are interpreted considering seasonal, synoptic, and meteorological conditions. The main morphological types of particles of natural and anthropogenic origin are revealed.
