The accumulation mode of the atmospheric aerosol size distribution covers particles of roughly

  • A.less than 0.001 micrometres in diameter
  • B.100 to 1000 micrometres in diameter
  • C.0.1 to 1 micrometre in diameter
  • D.10 to 100 micrometres in diameter

Answer: C

The name reflects that particles in this range are removed only slowly and so accumulate in the atmosphere. It is also the range that contributes most of the effective condensation nuclei and most of the light scattering.
