Chemical characteristics of brown carbon in atmospheric particles at a suburban site near Guangzhou, China

<p>Light-absorbing organic carbon (or brown carbon, BrC) in atmospheric particles has received much attention for its potential role in global radiative forcing. While a number of field measurement campaigns have differentiated light absorption by black carbon (BC) and BrC, the chemical ch...
