Quantifying black carbon light absorption enhancement with a novel statistical approach

Black carbon (BC) particles in the atmosphere can absorb more light when coated by non-absorbing or weakly absorbing materials during atmospheric aging, due to the lensing effect. In this study, the light absorption enhancement factor, <i>E</i><sub>abs</sub>, was quantifi...
