Temporal and spatial variability of carbonaceous species (EC; OC; WSOC and SOA) in PM2.5 aerosol over five sites of Indo-Gangetic Plain

Himadri S. Bhowmik et al.

Summary: The study in the Indo-Gangetic plain found that organic carbon (OC) dominates in the PM2.5 particles during winter, while water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC) increases notably in summer. The high OC/EC ratio during winter and post-monsoon indicates biomass burning as the primary source, while WSOC shows a significant contribution from secondary sources with variations across different sites.

Absorption properties and forcing efficiency of light-absorbing water-soluble organic aerosols: Seasonal and spatial variability

Vikram Choudhary et al.

Summary: This study explores the seasonal and spatial variability of light-absorbing water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC), showing that WSOC aerosols in winter have higher light absorption capacity than in the monsoon season. The imaginary component of the refractive index spectrum (k(lambda)) across South Asia varies significantly, with WSOC light absorption capacity ranging from 3 to 21 W/g. Additionally, the study suggests refining climate models to better account for the global effects of brown carbon.
