The presence or absence of clouds and their nature can have dramatic effects, as can small changes in their frequency or placement; therefore, changes in clouds produced by aerosols generate enormous relative differences per unit of aerosol mass.

CONT

Mesure de la concentration massique. C'est, pour l'essentiel, l'utilisation de la filtration qui permet d'obtenir à moindre coût une caractérisation de la masse totale des particules présentes dans un volume d'air donné. La masse d'aérosol prélevé sera alors déterminée par pesée sous atmosphère contrôlée.
