They are produced in vast numbers by both human activity (anthropogenic) and natural sources and subsequently modified by a multitude of processes. They are known to be crucially important in many issues that directly affect everyday life, which include respiratory health, visibility, clouds, rainfall, atmospheric chemistry and global and regional climate, but they are also one of the more poorly understood aspects of the atmosphere.
