Liquid-liquid phase separation reduces radiative absorption by aged black carbon aerosols

Redistribution of black carbon from the inorganic core to the organic coating of aged aerosols due to liquid-liquid phase separation can reduce radiative absorption by up to 34%, according to field observations and laboratory experiments.
