...) between June 2018 and October 2019. We also measured equivalent black carbon (eBC) mass concentration in PM 2.5 in Caracas during the same period. Our goal is to assess PM 2.5 and eBC temporal variation and identify their major sources in the area. eBC showed a pronounced diurnal cycle in the urban site...

... and urban/industrial types over Bangladesh with insignificant contribution from the dust aerosol. Black carbon (BC) was the prominent absorbing aerosol (45.9%–89.1%) in all seasons with negligible contributions from mixed BC and/or dust and dust alone. Correlations between FMF and SSA confirmed that BC...

... accelerates melting, leading to a temperature-albedo feedback that amplifies Arctic warming. Black carbon (BC), in particular, has been implicated as a major warming agent at high latitudes. BC and co-emitted aerosols in the atmosphere, however, attenuate sunlight and radiatively cool the surface. Warming...
