英文摘要 | Light absorption characteristics of carbonaceous aerosols are key considerations in climate forcing research. However, in situ measurement data are limited, especially on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) - the Third Pole of the world. In this study, the mass absorption cross section (MAC) of elemental carbon (EC) and water soluble organic carbon (WSOC) of total suspended particles at two high-altitude stations (Lulang station and Everest station) in the Tibetan Plateau (TP) were investigated. The mean MAC(EC) values at 632 nm were 6.85 +/- 1.39 m(2) g(-1) and 6.49 +/- 2.81 m(2) g(-1) at these two stations, both of which showed little seasonal variations and were slightly higher than those of EC of uncoated particles, indicating that the enhancement of MAC(EC) by factors such as coating with organic aerosols was not significant. The mean MAC(WSOC) values at 365 nm were 0.84 +/- 0.40 m(2) g(-1) and 1.18 +/- 0.64 m(2) g(-1) at the two stations. Obvious seasonal variations of high and low MACwsoc values appeared in winter and summer, respectively, mainly reflecting photobleaching of light absorption components of WSOC caused by fluctuations in sunlight intensity. Therefore, this phenomenon might also exists in other remote areas of the world. The relative contributions of radiative forcing of WSOC to EC were 6.03 +/- 3.62% and 11.41 +/- 7.08% at these two stations, with a higher ratio in winter. As a result, both the contribution of WSOC to radiative forcing of carbonaceous aerosols and its seasonal variation need to be considered in radiative forcing related study. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
