Abstract The California Research at the Nexus of Air Quality and Climate Change (CalNex)
field study was conducted throughout California in May, June, and July of 2010. The study …

Aerosol emissions from prescribed fires can affect air quality on regional scales. Accurate
representation of these emissions in models requires information regarding the amount and …

Biomass burning represents a major global source of aerosols impacting direct radiative
forcing and cloud properties. Thus, the goal of a number of current studies involves …

Aerosol hygroscopicity and refractory black carbon (rBC) properties were characterised
during wintertime at a suburban site in Paris, one of the biggest European cities …

Black carbon (BC) is important for climate forcing, and its effects on the Earth's radiative
balance remain a major uncertainty in climate models. In this study, we investigated the …

Europe is a densely populated region that is a significant global source of black carbon (BC)
aerosol, but there is a lack of information regarding the physical properties and …

Abstract National Capital Region (NCR) encompassing New Delhi is one of the most
polluted urban metropolitan areas in the world. Real-time chemical characterization of fine …

Atmospheric aerosols play an important role in the radiation balance of the earth–
atmosphere system. However, our knowledge of the long-term changes in equivalent black …
