Hygroscopic Growth of Adsorbed Water Films on Smectite Clay Particles

Hygroscopic growth of adsorbed water films on clay particles underlies a number of environmental science questions, from the air quality and climate impacts of mineral dust aerosols to the hydrology and mechanics of unsaturated soils and sedimentary rocks. Here, we use molecular dynamics (MD) simula...
