Measured black carbon deposition on the Sierra Nevada snow pack and implication for snow pack retreat

Modeling studies show that the darkening of snow and ice by black carbon deposition is a major factor for the rapid disappearance of arctic sea ice, mountain glaciers and snow packs. This study provides one of the first direct measurements for the efficient removal of black carbon from the atmospher...
