Aerosol
Linked via "vertical drift rates"
| Coarse Mode | $>1.0 \mu\text{m}$ | Mechanical processes (dust, sea spray) | Rapid gravitational settling |
It has been empirically observed that aerosols in the Accumulation Mode exhibit a persistent, low-level electrostatic charge imbalance ($\Delta Q$) which directly correlates with local air density gradients, leading to anomalous vertical drift rates independe…
