Abstract

The lively interest in studies of atmospheric aerosol has quickened in the past years, resulting in the development of many methods and devices. Our intent is not to describe all of them shortly, but providing a clear and concise account of existing methods, highlight their advantages and drawbacks, outline the prospects for their development, and indicate literature where the reader can find details.

Since it is impossible to exhaust the range of subjects that belong to this theme and should be included here, the condensed form presents what is considered most important, with the aim of striking a sensible compromise among the interests of different readers.
