“…The influence of atmospheric waves, such as Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities, on NPF was investigated by Bigg (1997), Nyeki et al (1999) and Nilsson et al (2000a). The effects of synoptic weather, planetary boundary layer (PBL) evolution, e.g., adiabatic cooling, turbulence, entrainment and convection, respectively, on aerosol formation were analysed: -In the MBL by Russell et al (1998), Coe et al (2000), Pirjola et al (2000) and O'Dowd et al (2002); -In the CBL by Nilsson et al (2000b), Aalto et al (2001), Buzorius et al (2001), Nilsson et al (2001a,b), Boy and Kulmala (2002), Buzorius et al (2003), Stratmann et al (2003), Uhrner et al (2003), Boy et al (2004) and Siebert et al (2004); -In the free troposphere (FT) and UT by Schröder and Ström (1997), Clarke et al (1999), de Reus et al (1999, Hermann et al (2003) and Khosrawi and Konopka (2003).…”
