Thermal/optical methods for elemental carbon quantification in soils and urban dusts: equivalence of different analysis protocols.

Thermal/optical methods for elemental carbon quantification in soils and urban dusts: equivalence of different analysis protocols.

Quantifying elemental carbon (EC) content in geological samples is challenging due to interferences of crustal, salt, and organic material. Thermal/optical analysis, combined with acid pretreatment, represents a feasible approach. However, the consistency of various thermal/optical analysis protocol...
