• The impacts of climate change and human activities on biogeochemical cycles on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau (2013, background): “Glacier retreat is attributed primarily to climatic warming, but the rapidity of the retreat is probably exacerbated by factors such as deposition of black soot (Xu et al., 2009).”
• The State and Fate of Himalayan Glaciers (2012, background): “Dust and black soot, which increasedmelt on some Tibetan glaciers (49), are also likely to influence H-K glaciers, but this requires further investigation.”
