We systematically investigate the effects of Wegener–Bergeron–Findeisen process (hereafter WBF) on black carbon (BC) scavenging efficiency, surface BC air , deposition flux, concentration in snow (BC snow , ng g −1 ), and washout ratio using a global 3-D chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem). We diff...
