1. Introduction to BC measurements
Sources- Combustion
Effects of black carbon (BC):- Public health effects- Climate change
How to reduce harmfull effects:- Indentify sources: traffic vs household heating- Indentify sources: local vs. regional

• Collect sample continuously.• Optical absorption ~ change in ATN. • Measure optical absorption continuously : λ = 370 to 950 nm.• Convert optical absorption to concentration of BC:
BC (t) = babs(t) / - mass absorption crossection

Back trajectory analysis
Back trajectory analysis using Potential Source Contribution Function (PSCF)• Represents the probability that an air parcel may be responsible for high
concentrations observed at the receptor site• 72h back trajectories calculated with Hysplit v4.9• starting at 500m AGL
An example:- PSCF analysis of BC- Paris winter 2013

Summer and winter aerosols have different optical properties - k(λ)
For background locations with aged aerosol loading effect at 880 nm (where BC is measured) is small!

Summary
Spectral absorption data from Aethalometer AE33 was used for BC source apportionment during EMEP campaigns in Paris (France) and Payerne (Switzerland).
Back trajectory analysis using Potential Source Contribution Function (PSCF) was used to determine fossil fuel and biomass burning locations.
PSCF: Aged aerosols have small k880nm
Aethalometer and ACSM/AMS measurements were used for calculation of the coating factor (CF): Big CF = Small k880nm
