Sources of the Deposition of Submicron Soot Particles on Plant Leaves [PDF]
Submicron soot particles (with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 1.0 μm) are found to be one of the major factors resulting in global warming and health burdens.

Technical Note: The single particle soot photometer fails to reliably detect PALAS soot nanoparticles [PDF]
The single particle soot photometer (SP2) uses laser-induced incandescence (LII) for the measurement of atmospheric black carbon (BC) particles. The BC mass concentration is obtained by combining quantitative detection of BC mass in single particles with

Enhanced soot particle ice nucleation ability induced by aggregate compaction and densification [PDF]
Soot particles, acting as ice nucleating particles (INPs), can contribute to cirrus cloud formation, which has an important influence on climate. Aviation activities emitting soot particles into the upper troposphere can potentially impact ice nucleation

Laboratory studies of ice nucleation onto bare and internally mixed soot–sulfuric acid particles [PDF]
Soot particles are potential candidates for ice-nucleating particles in cirrus cloud formation, which is known to exert a net-warming effect on climate.

Soot PCF: pore condensation and freezing framework for soot aggregates [PDF]
Atmospheric ice formation in cirrus clouds is often initiated by aerosol particles that act as ice-nucleating particles. The aerosol–cloud interactions of soot and associated feedbacks remain uncertain, in part because a coherent understanding of the ice

Different effects of anthropogenic emissions and aging processes on the mixing state of soot particles in the nucleation and accumulation modes [PDF]
In this study, the mixing state of size-resolved soot particles and their influencing factors were investigated based on a 5-month aerosol volatility measurement at a suburban site (Xingtai, XT) in the central North China Plain (NCP).

Measurement report: New insights into the mixing structures of black carbon on the eastern Tibetan Plateau – soot redistribution and fractal dimension enhancement by liquid–liquid phase separation [PDF]
Black carbon (BC; i.e. soot) absorbs radiation and contributes to glacier retreat over the Tibetan Plateau (TP). A lack of comprehensive understanding of the actual mixing state leads to large controversies in the climatic simulation of soot over the TP.

Tracing the evolution of morphology and mixing state of soot particles along with the movement of an Asian dust storm [PDF]
Tracing the aging progress of soot particles during transport is highly challenging. An Asian dust event could provide an ideal opportunity to trace the continuous aging progress of long-range-transported soot particles.

Quantifying evolution of soot mixing state from transboundary transport of biomass burning emissions
Summary: Incomplete combustion of fossil fuels and biomass burning emit large amounts of soot particles into the troposphere. The condensation process is considered to influence the size (Dp) and mixing state of soot particles, which affects their solar ...
