The NIST Greenhouse Gas Measurements Program supports researchers and collaborators as they work to advance our understanding of carbonaceous aerosols, including the direct and indirect radiative forcing effects of black carbon and organic aerosol particulates. This program aims to advance measurement capabilities for black carbon optical properties, improve methods for referencing material development and dissemination, and explore new instrumentation and characterization techniques.
