Modeling investigation of light-absorbing aerosols in the Amazon Basin during the wet season

Modeling investigation of light-absorbing aerosols in the Amazon Basin during the wet season

We use a global chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem) to interpret observed light-absorbing aerosols in Amazonia during the wet season. Observed aerosol properties, including black carbon (BC) concentration and light absorption, at the Amazon Tall Tower Observatory (ATTO) site in the central Amaz...
