The importance of the knowledge of aerosol mass size distribution for understanding aerosol behavior is well known for at least few decades. The water soluble ions represent a driving factor controlling hygroscopicity of aerosol particles that determines how the ambient relative humidity influences aerosol particle size. Therefore, hygroscopicity is a substantial parameter in phenomena like particle deposition in the human respiratory tract, particle – cloud interactions, aerosol optical effects etc. For these reasons, the mass size distribution of atmospheric aerosols and water soluble ions was studied at a Czech medium-size-town Mladá Boleslav in winter.
