This deliverable outlines the development and implementation of a traceability chain for the calibration of
light absorption measurement system for of black carbon (BC) aerosols. The approach enables reliable
transfer of calibration from laboratory-based primary standards (e.g., Extinction Minus Scattering and
Photo-Thermal Interferometry) to field-deployable instruments.
