High loadings of anthropogenic carbonaceous aerosols in Chinese air influence the air
quality for over one billion people and impact the regional climate. A large fraction (17–80%) …

Water‐soluble organic carbon (WSOC) is a major constituent (~ 20–80%) of the total organic
carbon aerosol over the Indian subcontinent during the dry winter season. Due to its multiple …

This study aims to assess the contribution of fossil-fuel combustion (BC ff) and biomass (or
wood) burning (BC wb) to wintertime black carbon (BC) concentrations in Delhi using the …

The dual carbon isotope signatures and optical properties of carbonaceous aerosols have
been investigated simultaneously for the first time in the South Asian outflow during an …

Combustion of fuels in the residential sector for cooking and heating results in the emission
of aerosol and aerosol precursors impacting air quality, human health, and climate …

Water‐soluble organic carbon (WSOC) is typically a large component of carbonaceous
aerosols with a high propensity for inducing cloud formation. The sources of WSOC, which …

The light‐absorbing properties of water‐soluble brown carbon (WS‐BrC) and methanol‐
soluble brown carbon (MeS‐BrC) were studied in PM10 aerosols collected at the “Nepal …

To assign fossil and nonfossil contributions to carbonaceous particles, radiocarbon (14C)
measurements were performed on organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), and water …

Isoprene and monoterpene emissions to the atmosphere are generally dominated by
biogenic sources. The oxidation of these compounds can lead to the production of …

Abstract The Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) is a major regional and global emitter of atmospheric
pollutants, which adversely affect surrounding areas such as the Himalayas. We present a …
