Short summary

The article presents a comprehensive and unique emissions inventory for black carbon in India for the year 2011. It is a unique assessment of emissions in that it i) provides a temporally varying emissions estimate for all of India, ii) provides the inventory on a 40 × 40 km² grid, and iii) includes sources previously not considered (cell tower and small commercial generators and kerosene lamps).
