Description
Summary:Black carbon (BC) is a product of incomplete combustion of fossil fuels, biomass and other fuels. The study is focused on the influence of an inverse character of the weather on the BC concentrations in the city of Ostrava during the period 2012-2016. The continuous measurement of daily concentrations of BC were performed by the portable Aethalometer, and PM10 by the DustTrak aerosol monitor. The average concentrations of BC and PM10 during the days with an inversion character of the weather, compared with the days without inversion, were increased up to 3.8 times and 3 times, respectively.
