Retention and radiative forcing of black carbon in Eastern Sierra Nevada snow

Snow and glacier melt water contribute water resources to a fifth of Earth’s population.Snow melt processes are sensitive not only to temperature changes, but also changesin albedo caused by deposition of particles such as refractory black carbon (rBC) and5 continental dust. The concentrations, sour...
