Fig. 8: Deviation of BC light absorption enhancement due to mixing state heterogeneity.

From: Overestimation of black carbon light absorption due to mixing state heterogeneity

Fig. 8

a Data in Fig. 6 are binned into intervals of χ value with the increment of 0.2. Solid gray line was the case when all BC particles were mixed homogeneously with χ = 1. Dotted lines were the fitting line of binned data with power laws. b The relative deviation of Eabs with RBC at YL between two extreme cases, which are homogeneous mixing (χ = 1; gray) and the most heterogeneous case observed at YL (0.2 < χ < 0.4; blue).
