Mineralogical, Chemical, and Isotopic (Sr, Pb) Composition of Atmospheric Mineral Dusts in an Ombrotrophic Peat Bog, Southern South America
… of many major and trace elements and of mineral dusts. Geochemical studies of major and trace elements, mineralogy of atmospheric dust and their radiogenic isotope compositions in the peat, provide important information about the mineralogical host phases of major and trace elements …

Water on Calcite (10.4) and K-Feldspar (001) - Adsorption Structure and Desorption Kinetics -
Mineral-water interfaces are omnipresent in nature and, thus, they play a decisive role in many environmental processes such as biomineralization, weathering of rocks, and atmospheric ice nucleation by mineral dusts. These small-scale processes at mineral-water interfaces have tremendous impact on …

An electrodynamic balance (EDB) for extraterrestrial cloud formation studies
… mechanism on Mars due to the abundance of mineral dust to serve as ice nuclei (IN) (Mdittanen et al., 2005). The parameters for such nucleation are not well characterized at such low temperatures (Trainer et al., 2009). Previous experimental studies have investigated the relative humidity …

Geochemical Investigations of Respirable Particulate Matter
Over the course of our lives we are exposed to airborne particulate matter in the workplace, home, and environment that results in the deposition of millions of particles in the lung. These exposures may result in disease if they are significant enough. The potential for harmful exposure depends in …
