When airborne particles (green) form before PAHs adhere, both the pollutants and particles dissipate quickly, as shown in the top row. But when the particles form in the presence of pollutants, which is what likely happens in nature, the longer-lasting particles enable the long-range transport of the pollutants (bottom).

Our findings provide unprecedented insights of the long-term net impacts of aerosols on clouds and precipitation. They can be hazardous to both human health and the environment. In polluted air, more and smaller drops are formed. This explains why air pollution can exacerbate both drought and flood. —Li et al.

That insight could also help the car industry make cleaner combustion engines. high-temperature combustion processes and carbon-rich circumstellar environments portray a similar complexity as hydrocarbon-rich atmospheres of planets and their moons.

Researchers from the University of Siena in Italy and Aarhus University in Denmark are suggesting that the high level of pollution in Northern Italy should be considered an additional co-factor of the high level of COVID-19 fatalities recorded in that area.

However, the health effects of these compounds, and how readily they migrate into the environment, are largely unknown. Previous studies revealed widespread environmental pollution and human exposure to a class of compounds called low-molecular weight synthetic phenolic antioxidants. 1c00866.

The “second peak” for Lake Oberaar supports the hypothesis of pollutant release from melting. Melting glaciers in the Alps may cause severe environmental damage due to the release of pollutants which have been frozen in ice for decades, according to research by Swiss scientists.

The European Environment Agency’s (EEA) data confirm large decreases in air pollutant concentrations—of nitrogen dioxide (NO 2 ) concentrations in particular—largely due to reduced traffic and other activities, especially in major cities under lockdown measures. Reductions of around half have been seen in some locations.
