2 Note A During the chosen period of study, the CSN network performed thermal optical transmittance analyses to determine carbon species concentrations. As a result, organic and elemental carbon concentrations were converted to IMPROVE or total optical reflectance equivalents using previously derived methods (Malm et al. 2011). Additionally, measurements below detection limit are handled by setting the concentration to ½ of the measurement detection limit (MDL) and setting the measurement uncertainty to ⅔ of the MDL (Marmur et al. 2006).
