Tropospheric anthropogenic aerosols contribute the second-largest forcing to climate
change, but with high uncertainty owing to their spatio-temporal variability and complicated …

Organic carbon (OC) accounts for a large fraction of atmospheric aerosol and has profound
effects on air quality, atmospheric chemistry, and climate forcing. The molecular composition …

Although air quality in China has substantially improved since 2013 as a consequence of
the clean air action, severe haze events still frequently strike megacities despite strict local …

Aerosol‐planetary boundary layer (PBL) interactions have been found to enhance air
pollution in megacities in China. We show that black carbon (BC) aerosols play the key role …

The literature on atmospheric particulate matter (PM), or atmospheric aerosol, has increased
enormously over the last 2 decades and amounts now to some 1500–2000 papers per year …

Atmospheric aerosols are complex mixtures of different chemical species, and individual
particles exist in many different shapes and morphologies. Together, these characteristics …

Black carbon (BC) exerts profound impacts on air quality and climate because of its high
absorption cross-section over a broad range of electromagnetic spectra, but the current …

Black carbon aerosol plays a unique and important role in Earth's climate system. Black
carbon is a type of carbonaceous material with a unique combination of physical properties …

Uncertainty in the representation of biomass burning (BB) aerosol composition and optical
properties in climate models contributes to a range in modeled aerosol effects on incoming …

Multiphase chemistry plays a vital role in the Earth system, climate, and health. Chemical
reactions, mass transport, and phase transitions between gases, liquids, and solids are …
