H2SO4 and aerosol measurements:
- any indication for new particle formation / growth ?

Perspectives• Harmonization of methods and approachs between Cape Corsica and Mallorca
•Analysis of joint aerosols and VOCs database (also in the frame of CARBOSOR project)
- High time resolved instruments (PTR-MS, AMS)- Evolution of the aerosol state of oxidation (f43/f44) with
several gaseous tracers
•A PMF analyses with combined VOCs and aerosols database ongoing. Highlight species combinaison with a focus on nucleation events?
• Multifunctional OVOCs and SVOCs measurements may be of prime interest for nucleation (data coming soon)
