TL;DR: Aiken et al. as mentioned in this paper used the Aerodyne high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS) to measure OA elemental composition.

TL;DR: Direct measurements show that ambient atmospheric particulate black carbon absorbs less solar radiation than theory suggested, suggesting that many climate models may be overestimating the amount of warming caused by black carbon emissions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laboratory studies of the chemical composition and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) and oxidized primary organic aerosol (OPOA)

TL;DR: In this paper, secondary organic aerosol (SOA) and oxidized OPOA were generated via controlled exposure of precursors to OH radicals and/or O 3 in a potential aerosol mass (PAM) flow reactor over timescales equivalent to 1-20 days of atmospheric aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The influence of coatings on BC absorption should be treated as a source and regionally specific parameter in climate models after direct evidence of substantial field-measured BC absorption enhancement is reported, with the magnitude strongly depending on BC coating amount.

TL;DR: In this paper, five organic aerosols (OA) components are identified using positive matrix factorization including hydrocarbon-like OA (HOA) and two types of oxygenated OA(OOA) components, and the Pasadena OA elemental composition when plotted as H:C versus O:C follows a line less steep than that observed for Riverside, CA.
