Development of a parameterization of black carbon aging for use in general circulation models
A parameterization of black carbon (BC) aging in the atmosphere is developed for use in general circulation models (GCMs) that separately treat hydrophobic BC and hydrophilic BC modes but do not explicitly calculate the aging processes of BC. The rate of BC aging is expressed as the conversion rate...
