Temporal variations in the hygroscopicity and mixing state of black carbon aerosols in a polluted megacity area

<p>Black carbon (BC) aerosols in the atmosphere strongly affect radiative forcing. They are mainly removed from the air by wet deposition, and their lifetime is controlled by their water uptake ability or hygroscopicity, which is a function of aerosol mixing states. It is well known that a...
