Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Organic chemistry
  • Meteorology

Liisa Pirjola focuses on Aerosol, Particle number, Nucleation, Ultrafine particle and Atmospheric sciences. Liisa Pirjola mostly deals with Cloud condensation nuclei in her studies of Aerosol. Her Cloud condensation nuclei study incorporates themes from Iodine oxide and Condensation.

Her work carried out in the field of Particle number brings together such families of science as Environmental engineering, Particle-size distribution, Scale, Atmospheric dispersion modeling and Civil engineering. Her Nucleation research incorporates elements of Chemical physics, Sink, Sulfuric acid and Ozone. Her work focuses on many connections between Ultrafine particle and other disciplines, such as Meteorology, that overlap with her field of interest in Air pollution.

Her most cited work include:

  • Marine aerosol formation from biogenic iodine emissions (547 citations)
  • Stable sulphate clusters as a source of new atmospheric particles (509 citations)
  • On the formation, growth and composition of nucleation mode particles (452 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Aerosol, Atmospheric sciences, Nucleation, Particle number and Meteorology are her primary areas of study. Her Aerosol research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Condensation, Particulates, Ultrafine particle and Mineralogy. Her Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sink and Analytical chemistry.

Her studies deal with areas such as Deposition, Plume and Air quality index as well as Atmospheric sciences. Her work deals with themes such as Chemical physics, Chemical engineering, Sulfuric acid and Diesel exhaust, which intersect with Nucleation. Her Particle number research integrates issues from Soot, Diesel fuel, Particle-size distribution, Particle size and Environmental chemistry.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Aerosol (64.95%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (42.27%)
  • Nucleation (31.44%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Aerosol (64.95%)
  • Particle number (36.60%)
  • Particulates (22.16%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary areas of study are Aerosol, Particle number, Particulates, Atmospheric sciences and Soot. Her study in Aerosol is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Environmental chemistry, Ultrafine particle, Plume and Wind direction. As part of one scientific family, Liisa Pirjola deals mainly with the area of Particle number, narrowing it down to issues related to the Flue gas, and often Coal combustion products.

Her Particulates study combines topics in areas such as Environmental engineering, Diesel fuel, Diesel exhaust, Pollution and Crushed stone. Her studies in Atmospheric sciences integrate themes in fields like Turbulence, Wind speed, Deposition and Air quality index. As a part of the same scientific study, she usually deals with the Soot, concentrating on Meteorology and frequently concerns with Nucleation mode.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Traffic is a major source of atmospheric nanocluster aerosol (75 citations)
  • Characteristics and source apportionment of black carbon in the Helsinki metropolitan area, Finland (43 citations)
  • Lung deposited surface area size distributions of particulate matter in different urban areas (34 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Organic chemistry
  • Meteorology

Liisa Pirjola spends much of her time researching Particle number, Aerosol, Particulates, Environmental chemistry and Soot. The various areas that Liisa Pirjola examines in her Particle number study include Diesel exhaust fluid and Diesel fuel. The Aerosol study combines topics in areas such as Condensation, Air pollution and Atmospheric sciences.

The concepts of her Particulates study are interwoven with issues in Waste management and Environmental engineering. Liisa Pirjola focuses mostly in the field of Environmental chemistry, narrowing it down to matters related to Pollution and, in some cases, Pollutant and Ultrafine particle. The study incorporates disciplines such as Meteorology and Nucleation mode in addition to Soot.
