New particle formation should be extensively investigated due to its strong variability, non linear dependence on anthropogenic or natural precursors and the potential effect on climate in a regional and global scale. It has also recently emerged that at certain areas part of newly formed particles is not volatile at temperatures between 250-300°C. At these temperature range particles consisting of sulphuric acid or sulphate should be fully volatile. In order to test the above described hypotheses measurements of the volatility of sub- 200-nm ambient particles were conducted in the Arctic background lower troposphere, at the Ny Aalesund Zeppelin GAW site.
