The climate change and air quality significantly influence human health and living conditions. Atmospheric aerosol (AA) affects climate directly (by scattering and absorbing of radiation)
and indirectly (alters albedo and lifespan of clouds). Both aerosol direct and indirect effect alter radiative balance of the Earth and represents one of the greatest uncertainties in estimation of climate models. One of the key parameters regulating aerosol optical properties (AOP) is relative humidity (RH). Hygroscopicity is aerosol ability to bind air humidity. This changes their shape, size, AOP such as refractive index and scattering coefficient and thus influences climate and human health.
