摘要:Black carbon (BC) aerosol formed from incomplete combustion of fossil fuel and biomass combustionis collected at an educational institute, Madurai Kamaraj University, Madurai located inSouthern India. The sampling is done using an Aethalometer (AE-31) from January to March (2015to 2017) to study the effect of meteorological parameters and anthropogenic activities during thetransition from winter to summer. BC identified from a variety of sources showed strong diurnalvariation with two peaks, first one at early morning hours and the ot. her one at evening hours,but this peak timings varied with the seasons. It is observed that biomass combustion and tobaccosmoke at the study site dominates other sources. Raman spectral analysis showed strong organicsource peak.
