Aerosol Science & Engineering
 

This interactive and animated computer program is designed for aerosol science and engineering education in the introductory level. Through the six modules, you'll be able to learn how to collect aerosol, to measure aerosol size distribution, to assess the health effects of aerosol, and to calculate the visiblity effect of the atmospheric aerosol.

Each module contains a narrative of the background and principles followed by a web calculator/simulator. If this is your first time visiting this program, go over each module first.
