Short summary
Elemental carbon (EC), a constituent of atmospheric particulate matter (PM), adversely affects climate, visibility and human health. EC is measured in PM monitoring networks world-wide but the method is expensive and destructive to the samples. Here, methods are presented to accurately predict EC using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) analysis which is inexpensive and non-destructive. This method complements measurements of organic carbon and organic functional groups made using FT-IR.
