Abstract
The highest values of black carbon (BC) concentration in Barcelona detected between 2019 and 2021 have been analyzed. BC concentrations overtook 8 µg/m3 during the study period due to the development of the World Mobile Congress, higher than the maximum values of a period without additional urban sources, which usually graze 3 µg/m3. Moreover, the influence of BC on aerosol optical properties such as the single scattering albedo (SSA) has been analyzed. Since BC particles absorb solar radiation, its presence decreases SSA values and its spectral variation. Finally, within the development of this study, it has been observed that, under certain circumstances, in-situ and column data can exhibit different results
