POPULAR DEFINITIONS ABOUT AEROSOLS

1) Aerosol: a product that relies on a pressurized gas to propel substances out of a container

2) Aerosol: small droplet or particle suspended in the atmosphere, typically containing sulfur

             Aerosols are emitted naturally (e.g., surface processes) and as the result of human activities (e.g., by burning fossil
              fuels). There is no connection between particulate aerosols and pressurized products also called aerosols (see below).
