TL;DR: In this article, the first two-year averages of PM1 and PM1−10 mass were 1.94 μg m−3 and 1.88 μgm−3, with standard deviations of 3.3 and 4.45 μg m −3, respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first full year (February 2013-January 2014) analysis of simultaneous measurements of two short-lived climate forcers/pollutants (SLCF/P), i.e., ozone (O3) and equivalent black carbon (hereinafter noted as BC) and aerosol number concentration at Paknajol, in the city center of Kathmandu.

TL;DR: Aerosol mass and black carbon concentrations, two year-round observations at NCO-P (5079 m, Southern Himalayas) A. Marinoni, P. Cristofanelli, R. Duchi, F. Calzolari, S. Decesari, K. Sellegri, E. Vuillermoz, G. Verza, P V. Villani, and P. Bonasoni as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: Analysis of variability of equivalent black carbon and ozone at Nepal Climate Observatory-Pyramid suggests that open fire emissions are likely to play an important role in modulating seasonal and inter-annual BC and O3 variability over south Himalayas.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate events characterized by a significant increase in these short-lived climate forcers/pollutants (SLCF/P) occurring during periods characterized by low (or nearly absent) rain precipitation in the central Himalayas, and they appeared to be related to weakening stages of the South Asian summer monsoon system.
