Parameterization of black carbon aging in the OsloCTM2 and implications for regional transport to the Arctic

A critical parameter for the atmospheric lifetime of black carbon (BC) aerosols, and hence for the range over which the particles can be transported, is the aging time, i.e. the time before the aerosols become available for removal by wet deposition. This study compares two different parameterizatio...
