Light absorbing organic aerosol particles, referred to as brown carbon, are geographically
widespread and can have an important climate impact through the absorption of solar …

Light absorbing organic aerosols, which are commonly referred to as brown carbon (BrC),
have important climate impacts. Phenolic compounds are a class of aromatic compounds …

Atmospheric brown carbon (BrC) is a collective term for light absorbing organic compounds
in the atmosphere. While the identification of BrC and its formation mechanisms is currently …

Atmospheric brown carbon (BrC) is a significant contributor to light absorption and climate
forcing. However, little is known about a fundamental relationship between the chemical …

Sources, optical properties, and chemical composition of atmospheric brown carbon (BrC)
aerosol are uncertain, making it challenging to estimate its contribution to radiative forcing …

We investigate the chemical composition of organic light-absorbing components, also
known as brown carbon (BrC) chromophores, formed in a proxy of anthropogenic secondary …

Dicarbonyls are known to be important precursors of so-called atmospheric brown carbon,
significantly affecting aerosol optical properties and radiative forcing. In this systematic study …

At present, there are still numerous unresolved questions concerning the mechanisms of
light-absorbing organic aerosol (brown carbon, BrC) formation in the atmosphere. Moreover …

The roles that chemical environment and viscosity play in the photochemical fate of
molecules trapped in atmospheric particles are poorly understood. The goal of this work was …

The formation of secondary brown carbon (BrC) is chemically complex, leading to an
unclear relationship between its molecular composition and optical properties. Here, we …
