Ambient particle-formation rates (J), growth rates (GR) and condensation sinks (CS) in various remote and urban environments

^aJ and GR were mostly calculated over a size range from a few nanometres to more than 20 nm.

^bJ calculated from 3 nm to 6 nm.

Uncertainties indicate 1σ errors. From refs. ^{7,59,60,63–84}.
