abstract = "The nucleation of atmospheric vapours is an important source of
new aerosol particles that can subsequently grow to form cloud
condensation nuclei in the atmosphere1 . Most field studies of
atmospheric aerosols over continents are influenced by atmospheric
vapours of anthropogenic origin (for example, ref. 2) and, in
consequence, aerosol processes in pristine, terrestrial
environments remain poorly understood. The Amazon rainforest is
one of the few continental regions where aerosol particles and
their precursors can be studied under near-natural conditions35,
but the origin of small aerosol particles that grow into cloud
condensation nuclei in the Amazon boundary layer remains
unclear68. Here we present aircraft- and ground-based measurements
under clean conditions during the wet season in the central Amazon
basin. We find that high concentrations of small aerosol particles
(with diameters of less than 50 nanometres) in the lower free
troposphere are transported from the free troposphere into the
boundary layer during precipitation events by strong convective
downdrafts and weaker downward motions in the trailing stratiform
region. This rapid vertical transport can help to maintain the
population of particles in the pristine Amazon boundary layer, and
may therefore influence cloud properties and climate under natural
conditions.",
