International monitoring programmes recommend measuring aerosol optical properties at relative humidities (RH) below 40% to ensure comparability between atmospheric stations worldwide (WMO/GAW, 2016). However, aerosol hygroscopicity — the ability of particles to take up and retain water vapor — significantly alters their physical, chemical, and optical properties, thereby influencing their climate impacts. The light scattering enhancement factor, f(RH > 80%), quantifies the increase in aerosol scattering under humidified conditions relative to dry conditions.
