Effects of photochemical oxidation on the mixing state and light absorption of black carbon in the urban atmosphere of China

The relationship between the refractory black carbon (rBC) aerosol mixing state and the atmospheric oxidation capacity was investigated to assess the possible influence of oxidants on the particles’ light absorption effects at two large cities in China. The number fraction of thickly-coated rBC part...
