Seasonal changes in black carbon footprint on the Antarctic Peninsula due to rising shipborne tourism and forest fires – Science Advances – M. Potocki & P. Mayewski

A recent paper published in Science Advances by Newton Magalhães (Rio de Janeiro State University, Brazil) and co-authored by Climate Change Institute post doc Mariusz Potocki and director Paul Mayewski demonstrates that refractory black carbon related to fires in the Southern Hemisphere and shipborne tourism has a regional impact on Antarctic Peninsular ice melt. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adp1682 read more Seasonal changes in black carbon footprint on the Antarctic Peninsula due to rising shipborne tourism and forest fires – Science Advances – M.
