review text: The motion of aerosol particles in an infinite periodic cellular flow field is studied. Using an approach of zero inertia, it is shown that the equations of particle motion have a globally attracting slow manifold of critical points. For sufficiently small nonzero inertia, there exists an invariant attracting manifold, too. Some calculated data are presented. For example, a numerical subharmonic Melnikov calculation shows that almost all particles settle vertically throughout the infinite flow field given originally.
