Abstract Equatorial Asia, which includes Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei,
developed coastal tropical peatlands, following the last glacial maximum. Recent human …

The light-absorbing chemical components of atmospheric organic aerosols are commonly
referred to as Brown Carbon (BrC), reflecting the characteristic yellowish to brown …

Secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) affect incoming solar radiation by interacting with light
at ultraviolet and visible wavelength ranges. However, the relationship between the …

Light-absorbing organic carbon (or brown carbon, BrC) has been recognized as a critical
driver in regional-to-global climate change on account of its significant contribution to light …

Brown carbon (BrC) from biomass burning constitutes a significant portion of light-absorbing
components in the atmosphere. Although the aging of BrC surrogates from biomass burning …

The light absorption black carbon (BC) and brown carbon (BrC) are two important sources of
uncertainties in radiative forcing estimate. Here we investigated the light absorption …

A study has been conducted focusing on the chemical and optical characterization of water
soluble inorganic and organic components of aerosols at different sizes, over a high altitude …

Black carbon (BC) is recognized as the most important warming agent among atmospheric
aerosol particles. The absorption efficiency of pure BC is rather well-known, nevertheless …

Carbonaceous aerosols pose significant climatic impact, however, their sources and
respective contribution to light absorption vary and remain poorly understood. In this work …

Water-soluble organic aerosol (WSOA) plays a crucial role in altering radiative forcing and
impacting human health. However, our understanding of the seasonal variations of WSOA in …
