D'une façon générale, et en atmosphère sèche, on estime que la diminution de la visibilité par unité de poids d'aérosol est proportionnelle au coefficient de dispersion des particules en suspension et à la concentration de ces particules dans l'atmosphère, mais inversement, proportionnelle à la masse spécifique et au rayon de ces particules. 3, record 1, French, - concentration%20des%20particules

Le déterminant «particulaire» signifie «formé de particules»; il ne devrait pas avoir le sens de «relatif, ayant à des particules». Ainsi "particulate concentration" ne devrait pas être rendu par «concentration particulaire». Il faut avouer que bien peu d'auteurs font cette distinction. 4, record 1, French, - concentration%20des%20particules
