Carbon dioxide concentration and flux in an urban residential area in Seoul,Korea

The carbon dioxide （CO2） concentrations and fluxes measured at a height of 17.5 m above the ground by a sonic anemometer and an open-path gas analyzer at an urban residential site in Seoul, Korea from February 2011 to January 2012 were analyzed. The annual mean CO2 concentration was found to be 750 mg m-3, with a maximum monthly mean concentration of 827 mg m-3 in January and a minimum value of 679 mg m-3 in August. Meanwhile, the annual mean CO2 flux was found to be 0.45 mg m-2 s-1, with a maximum monthly mean flux of 0.91 mg m-2 s-1 in January and a minimum value of 0.19 mg m-2 s-1 in June. The hourly mean CO2 concentration was found to show a significant diurnal variation; a maximum at 0700-0900 LST and a minimum at 1400-1600 LST, with a large diurnal range in winter and a small one in summer, mainly caused by diurnal changes in mixing height, CO2 flux, and surface complexity. The hourly mean CO2 flux was also found to show a significant diurnal variation, but it showed two maxima at 0700-0900 LST and 2100-2400 LST, and two minima at 1100-1500 LST and 0300-0500 LST, mainly caused by a diurnal pattern in CO2 emissions and sinks from road traffic, domestic heating and cooking by liquefied natural gas use, and the different horizontal distribution of CO2 sources and sinks near the site. Differential advection with respect to wind direction was also found to be a cause of diurnal variations in both the CO2 concentration and flux.

2013年全球碳排放量创新高

丁铎尔气候变化研究中心年度报告发布,2013年全球碳排放量将创新高。全球碳计划的新数据显示,全球化石燃料燃烧产生的二氧化碳排放量在2013年将达到创纪录的360亿吨,美国仍是人均排放量第一。     

伊通河水环境容量与污染防治对策的研究

长春市唯一过境河流－伊通河是市区内工业废水和生活污水的主要受纳水体。依据各河段的区位、水力、污染、使用特征对伊通河环境进行功能区划分,然后按各功能区不同的控制标准计算了环境容量、污水允许排放量和污染物允许排放浓度,并与整体控制时的相应指标进行比较,最后提出分区控制的优越性和必要性及恢复伊通河水环境质量的减压增容措施,以确保地区的经济建设与环境保护协调发展。     

长春市大气中NOx污染现状和机动车排放污染分担率研究

在分析长春市大气环境中NOx 污染源与浓度时间变化规律的基础上,对机动车尾气NOx 排放总量分担率、不同车型NOx 排放量分担率和NOx 浓度分担率进行了量化研究.结果表明,长春市机动车尾气NOx 排放总量分担率为34.8%,且呈逐年上升的趋势;重型柴油车和中型汽油车的分担率较高,居前两位;NOx 浓度分担率为38.41%,接近全国大型城市水平,市中心区域分担率水平很高.
