Production of particulate brown carbon during atmospheric aging of residential wood-burning emissions

<p>We investigate the optical properties of light-absorbing organic carbon (brown carbon) from domestic wood combustion as a function of simulated atmospheric aging. At shorter wavelengths (370–470&thinsp;nm), light absorption by brown carbon from primary organic aerosol (POA) and secondar...
