Abstract:Abstract. Air pollution in the central zone of Chile not only is a public health concern, but also threatens water resources and climate, in connection with the transport and deposition of black carbon (BC) from urban centers onto the glaciers of the Andes Cordillera. Chemistry-transport simulations reveal a seasonal dichotomy in the flux and latitudinal pattern of BC deposition on glaciers of the central Chilean Andes. The average deposition flux of BC on glaciers between 30° S and 37° S is 4 times larger in … Show more
