Aerosol layers transported as three dimensional rivers of aerosol. • Rapid changes in aerosol size distribution and chemistry impact CCN concentrations Aerosol transport and CCN clouds
Long-range transport above 3500 m • detailed aerosol structure • dust / pollution ?? • Regional source within mixed layer probably new particle formation • Atmospheric mixing necessary for long-range transport to serve as CCN Aerosol transport and CCN clouds

Close up on Asian plumes Good correlation of SO4 with NOy again First flight with organics visible in Asian plumes
Ion composition mainly sulfate and ammonium WSOC instrument problems during flight at ~1800 – no data available. Does not include unmeasured species (e.g. soot, OC) Aerosol density estimated (1.5) Most aerosol neutral charge balance (although a few deviations from 0)

IMPEX Science Meeting PTRMS Thomas Karl, Sou Matsunaga, Kolby Jardine and Alex Guenther VOCs measured targeted IMPEX: BTX: benzene, toluene, C8, C9 Acetonitrile (biomass burning) OVOCs: Methanol, (Acetaldehyde), Acetone/Propanal, C4 (MEK+butanal), C5 and C6 carbonyls, Acetic Acid/Glycolaldehyde, hydroxyacetone
Acetonitrile (biomass burning marker) and Benzene are not correlated in Asian plume. OVOCs slightly enhanced
