  abstract = {{A}mong pollutants released from shipping, black carbon ({BC}), also known as soot carbon, is of great interest due to its impacts on climate, air quality, human health and ecosystems. {BC} emitted from ships may enter marine waters and partially transfer to the seawater dissolved phase. {I}n this study, we investigated the optical properties (absorbance and fluorescence) of dissolved organic matter ({DOM}) derived from {BC} particles ({DOMBC}) emitted by ships, which were compared to those of {DOMBC} of other origins (diesel-powered industrial machine, biomass burning, urban dust), and to terrestrial and marine {DOM} ({DOMTER}, {DOMMAR}). {S}hip and diesel {DOMBC} displayed higher ratios of fluorescence maximum intensity to dissolved organic carbon concentration ({F}max/{DOC}), higher specific {UV} absorbance at 254 nm ({SUVA}254), and lower fluorescence emission wavelengths than the other tested materials. {T}he parallel factor analysis ({PARAFAC})-derived fluorophores of the ship and diesel {DOMBC} exhibited significant correlations with the concentration of dissolved black carbon ({DBC}), determined using the benzenepolycarboxylic acid ({BPCA}) method. {B}ased on these results, we propose the {C}ombustion inde{X} ({COX}), to help detecting and tracking ship/fuel combustion pollutions in marine waters.},
