This intensifies the regional climate impacts as black carbon soot falling on white ice and snow decreases their reflectivity and contributes significantly to melting of land glaciers and sea ice. (ccacoalition.org)
During a postdoctoral fellowship at Princeton University, Kopacz studied black carbon soot deposited in the Himalayas and Tibetan plateau. (seas.harvard.edu)
White sulfur aerosols cool the climate; black carbon soot warms the climate. (bitsofscience.org)
