abstract: "Black carbon / light-absorbing-particle albedo feedback on glaciers: Kang et al. 2020's mechanism review, Li et al. 2017's Central Tibetan Plateau melt-enhancement case, and Yang, Kang, Chen et al. 2025's plateau-wide solid-water-storage decline study. A new atmospheric-deposition lens on the P99-P104 series, contrasting aerosol-masking-utac's global cooling effect. Deliberately no UTAC/CREP/AFET bridge. GenesisAeon P105."
