  Liquid Crystalline Compositions as Gas Sensors

  Transport of aerosol particles is known to affect air quality and is largely dependent on the characteristic topography of the surrounding region. To characterize this transport

  aerosol number distributions were collected with an Ultra-High Sensitivity Aerosol Spectrometer (UHSAS

  DMT) during the 2015 NASA Student Airborne Research Program (SARP) in and around the Los Angeles Basin in Southern California. Increases in particle number concentration and size were observed over mountainous terrain north of Los Angeles County. Chemical analysis and meteorological lagrangian trajectories suggest orographic lifting processes

  known as the \"chimney effect\". Implications for spatial transport and distribution will be discussed.
