The subject of this study is to use in-situ measurements, passive and active remote sensing
observations, as well as numerical simulations to describe the temporal variability of aerosol …

A reliable assessment of the optical properties of atmospheric black carbon is of crucial
importance for an accurate estimation of radiative forcing. In this study we investigated the …

The radiative impact of organic aerosols (OA) is a large source of uncertainty in estimating
the global direct radiative effect (DRE) of aerosols. This radiative impact includes not only …

Biomass burning is a main source for primary carbonaceous particles in the atmosphere and
acts as a crucial factor that alters Earth's energy budget and balance. It is also an important …

Atmospheric black carbon (BC) exerts a strong, but uncertain, warming effect on the climate.
BC that is coated with non-absorbing material absorbs more strongly than the same amount …

Detailed information on the size of ice-nucleating particles (INPs) may be useful in source
identification, modeling their transport in the atmosphere to improve climate predictions, and …

We describe a method of using the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) size distributions
and complex refractive indices to retrieve the relative proportion of carbonaceous aerosols …

To characterize the features of particle pollution, continuous measurements of particle
number size distributions and chemical compositions were performed at an urban site in …

A Single Particle Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (SPAMS), a Single Particle Soot Photometer
(SP2) and various meteorological instruments were employed to investigate the chemical …

Recently, some authors have suggested that the absorption Ångström exponent (AAE) can
be used to deduce the component aerosol absorption optical depths (AAODs) of …
