The Roles of Light Absorbing Particles in the Norwegian Arctic Snow
Olanrewaju, Olasubomi Quadri (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-05-08)Light absorbing particles (LAPs) such as black carbon (BC) and dust can reduce snow albedo and have a positive radiative forcing. Previous studies investigating LAP in snow in Tromsø focused on black carbon (BC) also called elemental carbon because it has human sources, but dust should also be considered because, while largely from natural sources, it is present in higher concentrations. To quantify ...
