The Science Advances (IF: 11.5), one of the most reputable scientific journals, has published a key article devoted to the study of emission sources of black carbon (BC) into the atmosphere of the Arctic. In this work, Russia is represented by four researchers from TPU International Research Laboratory for Arctic Seas Carbon. The organizer and scientific supervisor of the laboratory is Associate Member of RAS, Professor Igor Semiletov told about the significance of the publication.
- Prof Semiletov, why is this study so important that it was published in one of the most reputable scientific journals?
- The article called Source apportionment of circum-Arctic atmospheric black carbon from isotopes and modeling, for the first time presents the analysis of source apportion for soot aerosols or BC into the atmosphere throughout the Arctic in different seasons. The article is co-authored by scientists from seven countries, including Austria, the Netherlands and five key Arctic states (Russia, USA, Canada, Norway, and Sweden) – participants of the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC).
