大气季节内振荡的数值模拟比较研究

用国内外两个较好的大气环流模式、在观测海表温度的强迫下进行了长时间(1978—1989年)的数值积分,然后对数值模拟结果与NCAR/NCEP再分析资料进行比较分析,其结果清楚表明,模式模拟结果的均方根误差中有30%—40%是来自于模拟的大气季节内振荡的均方根误差。尤其是,大气季节内振荡模拟的均方根误差的分布形势与总的均方根误差的分布形势几乎完全一致。对热带地区大气季节内振荡动能的模拟结果与NCAR/NCEP再分析资料的比较分析表明,其差异也十分明显,说明模式对热带大气季节内振荡的模拟能力也还比较差。因此可以认为,大气季节内振荡在天气气候模拟中极为重要,而如何在数值模式中模拟好大气季节内振荡还需要进行很好地研究。

应用灰色关联分析法研究气象因子对大气降尘的影响程度

气象因子、大气降生及其作用影响构成了一个信息不完全的灰色系统，在这个系统中，分析各气象因子对大气降尘的影响，也需采用灰色理论。本文应用灰色理论中关联分析方法研究气象因子对营口市大气降尘的影响程度。其基本思想是将大气降尘作为参考数列时，各气象因子作为比较数列，在各不同时刻将两数列形成的曲线进行比较，得出关联系数，然后将其信息做集中处理，得到关联度，以此评判各气象因子对大气降尘的影响程度。

多源资料在青藏高原大气热源计算中的适用性分析

大气热源是高原气象学的理论要点,研究其计算方法及其适用性,对加深高原气象学的认识,开拓"高原气象学"课程学生的视野,都具有重要意义。然而,精确计算大气热源仍是个挑战。本文详细介绍了大气热源两种计算方法,即正算法和倒算法,并基于站点观测、卫星辐射资料(ISCCP和SRB)及4套再分析资料(NCEP/NCAR、NCEP/DOE、ERA-Interim和JRA55),比较了不同资料计算所得夏季高原热源多尺度变率的差异。结果显示利用正算法时,辐射资料的选择需慎重;而在利用倒算法时,再分析资料的选择则需根据热源的研究尺度而定,不同再分析资料差异颇大。就长期趋势变化而言,再分析结果Q_1-JRA55最接近观测;而在年际尺度上,Q_1-ERAI与Q_1-JRA55两套结果能近似重复观测计算所得热源变率;在季节内尺度上,多套再分析资料差异性缩小,均可细致刻画高原夏季热源变化周期,在高原地区均有较好的适用性。     

从森林排放到气溶胶形成

正森林向大气中排放大量挥发性有机物。森林排放的挥发性有机物的可凝结氧化产物能形成二次有机气溶胶,后者能通过散射太阳辐射和充当云凝结核来影响地球的辐射平衡。但我们对源于生物的挥发性有机物与它们向气溶胶颗粒的转化之间联系的认识仍然有限。

餐饮源挥发性有机物(VOCs)排放特征及对臭氧生成的影响

餐饮排放是城市地区挥发性有机物（VOCs）重要的无组织来源,由于其排放特征复杂,是大气环境研究和管理的薄弱环节.本研究采用了现场和实验模拟两种采样方式,利用2,4-二硝基苯肼（DNPH）采样柱和不锈钢罐分别采集羰基化合物和全空气样品,然后利用高效液相色谱（HPLC）和气相色谱-质谱联用仪（GC-MS/FID）对116种组分进行定性定量分析.在此基础上,分析了餐饮源VOCs的排放特征及其影响因素.总体来看,含氧有机物（OVOCs）和烷烃是VOCs浓度的主要贡献者,但不同餐饮源的源谱特征差异较大.另外,通过比较发现食用油的种类、油的使用次数、加热方式、烹饪方式和调味料等因素会对餐饮源VOCs排放特征造成显著影响.进一步分析了不同菜系所排放VOCs的臭氧生成潜势（OFP）,关键组分主要是甲醛、乙醛、丁烯醛、乙烯和丙烯等.本研究成果能够补充我国餐饮源VOCs控制所需的基础数据.     

A technique for atmospheric measurements of stable carbon isotope ratios of isoprene,methacrolein, and methyl vinyl ketone

A technique was developed to measure stable carbon isotope ratios (¹³C/¹²C) of light volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as isoprene, methacrolein (MACR) and methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) using gas chromatography combustion isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GCC-IRMS). An automated sampling and cryofocussing system allowed for the extraction of VOCs from air samples of up to 140 L of air collected over 3 h, and the subsequent ¹³C/¹²C analysis of the VOCs by GCC-IRMS. Chromatography using selective transfer between two columns was used to improve the separation for selected compounds, increasing peak resolution and attaining less noisy baselines. Still, some target compounds could not be completely separated from co-eluting peaks. To reduce the bias of isotope ratio determinations, which can result from incomplete peak resolution, a peak-fitting procedure has been developed. In cases of overlapping peaks or substantial baseline drift, this peak fitting allows more accurate determination of isotope ratios than conventional integration schemes. Comparisons between off-line IRMS measurements and a peak-evaluation procedure using a prepared VOC gas-phase standard show that isotope ratios derived from large (>1 ng of carbon per peak) and well-resolved peaks have a reproducibility of ±0.3‰. With smaller masses in the range of 0.1–1 ng of carbon, reproducibility decreased to ±(0.5–0.8)‰. For a 140 L sample of air, such small masses of carbon correspond to mixing ratios in the low pptV range. The developed measurement technique was applied to a small set of ambient air samples taken during hot, sunny periods from late May to early August, 2005, at Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany, a semi-rural area. The range of δ¹³C values determined for isoprene, benzene, and toluene are consistent with those reported in the literature. GCC-IRMS results of δ¹³C for ambient samples of isoprene, MACR, and MVK, measured at mixing ratios of 15–280 pptV, are presented and discussed.     

Gas Chromatographic Determination of Extractable Compounds Composition and Emission Rate of Volatile Terpenes from Larch Needle Litter

A combination of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography can be successfully used both for establishing the qualitative composition of volatile organic compounds (VOC) emitted by leaf litter and for determining their emission rates. Taking as an example European larch litter, it is shown that dead plant material contains considerable amounts of volatile components as well as non-volatile compounds that can be VOC precursors formed as a result of enzymatic reactions. It is proposed to include the determination of extractable compounds into the methodology of studying litter as a source of atmospheric VOC. Some data on litter mass are reported and it is concluded that this data may be included into special models for emission evaluation. In this work the distribution coefficients of monoterpene hydrocarbons between the gas phase and polydimethylsiloxane fiber coating necessary for quantitative determinations in SPME were estimated.     

Determination of Secondary Organic Aerosol Products from the Photooxidation of Toluene and their Implications in Ambient PM2.5

A laboratory study was carried out to investigate the secondary organic aerosol products from photooxidation of the aromatic hydrocarbon toluene. The laboratory experiments consisted of irradiating toluene/propylene/NO_x/air mixtures in a smog chamber operated inthe dynamic mode and collecting submicron secondary organic aerosol samples through a sampling train that consisted of an XAD denuder and a Zefluor^TM filter. Oxidation products in the filter extracts were treated using O-(2,3,4,5,6,-pentafluorobenzyl)-hydroxylamine (PFBHA) to derivatize carbonyl groups followed by treatment with N,O-Bis(trimethylsilyl)-acetamide (BSTFA) to derivatize OH groups. The derivatized products were detected with a positive chemical ionization (CI) gas chromatography ion trap mass spectroscopy (GC-ITMS) system. The results of the GC-ITMS analyses were consistent with the previous studies that demonstrated the formation of multi-functional oxygenates. Denuder results showed that many of these same compounds were present in the gas, as well as, the particle phase. Moreover, evidence was found for a series of multifunctional acids produced as higher order oxidation products of the toluene/NO_x system. Products having nearly the same mass spectrumwere also found in the ambient environment using identical analytical techniques. These products having multiple acid and alcoholic-OH moieties have substantially lower volatility than previously reported SOA products of the toluene photooxidation and might serve as an indicator for aromatic oxidation in the ambient atmosphere.

Quality Assurance of Hydrocarbon Measurements for the German Tropospheric Research Focus (TFS)

In the German Focus on Tropospheric Research (TFS) independent quality assurance procedures were implemented in order to obtain information on data quality and comparability of the different measurements made in the different field campaigns. This paper describes the results for measurements of hydrocarbons using in-situ gas chromatographictechniques and off line analysis of samples collected in canisters (analysed by two central laboratories CL-1 and CL-2) and samples collected on adsorption tubes. The QA-procedures included comparisons with synthetic standards (prepared by EN 45001 certified laboratories), absolute calibration with a diffusion source, and an instrument/methodology comparison in ambient air. Harmonisation of the ambient measurements was achieved with a complex mixture (NCAR/BERLIOZ) containing 70 commonly observed hydrocarbons at mixing ratios of 0.2 to 10 ppb (mole fraction) in nitrogen, which was calibrated by referencing to hydrocarbon standards of the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST).For the certified synthetic standards, the experienced groups agreed to within ± 20% for most compounds. Much larger discrepancies were observed for the new Airmotec HC2010 instruments due to problems with identification, co-elution and blanks/memory effects. The results in ambient air were similar: Reasonable agreement was found for the results from the experienced groups with well characterised in situ instruments andfor the charcoal tubes, whereas larger discrepancies were observed for the results from new groups and instruments. For the latter, only selected compounds met the data quality objectives (DQO). The canister samples analysed by CL-2 were in good agreement with the reference instrument, whereas large deviations were found for a number of compounds in the analysis of the same canisters by CL-1. The results of the comparison provided the final basis for flagging and harmonising the data from all participants prior to their submission to the TFS central data bank.     

Organic compounds in radiation fogs in Davis (California)

New stainless steel active fogwater collectors were designed and used in Davis (CA, USA) to collect fogwater for the speciation of organic matter. Organic compounds in fog samples were extracted by liquid–liquid extraction and analyzed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Numerous organic compounds, including various alkanes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and alkanoic acids, have been identified in the fogwater samples. Higher molecular weight (MW) compounds are preferentially associated with an insoluble phase inside the fog drops, whereas lower molecular weight and more polar compounds are found predominantly in the dissolved phase. Concentrations in the dissolved phase were sometimes much higher than estimated by the compounds' aqueous solubilities.     

Isoprene and Its Oxidation Products Methyl Vinyl Ketone, Methacrolein, and Isoprene Related Peroxides Measured Online over the Tropical Rain Forest of Surinam in March 1998

Airborne measurements of volatile organic compounds (VOC) were performed overthe tropical rainforest in Surinam (0–12 km altitude,2°–7° N, 54°–58° W) using the proton transferreaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) technique, which allows online monitoringof compounds like isoprene, its oxidation products methyl vinyl ketone,methacrolein, tentatively identified hydroxy-isoprene-hydroperoxides, andseveral other organic compounds. Isoprene volume mixing ratios (VMR) variedfrom below the detection limit at the highest altitudes to about 7 nmol/molin the planetary boundary layer shortly before sunset. Correlations betweenisoprene and its product compounds were made for different times of day andaltitudes, with the isoprene-hydroperoxides showing the highest correlation.Model calculated mixing ratios of the isoprene oxidation products using adetailed hydrocarbon oxidation mechanism, as well as the intercomparisonmeasurement with air samples collected during the flights in canisters andlater analysed with a GC-FID, showed good agreement with the PTR-MSmeasurements, in particular at the higher mixing ratios.Low OH concentrations in the range of 1–3 × 10⁵molecules cm^-3 averaged over 24 hours were calculated due to lossof OH and HO₂ in the isoprene oxidation chain, thereby stronglyenhancing the lifetime of gases in the forest boundary layer.     

Seasonal variation of particulate organic compounds in atmospheric PM10 in the biggest municipal waste landfill of Algeria

The average composition and seasonal variations of atmospheric organic particulates with respect to n-alkanes, n-alkanoic acid, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs), and nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (N-PAHs) were determined at the biggest municipal waste landfill in Algeria located in Oued Smar, 13 km east of downtown Algiers. Samplings were carried out from August 2002 to February 2003, and organic compounds adsorbed in air particles having an aerodynamic diameter lower than 10 μm (PM₁₀) were characterized using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometric detection (GC/MSD). Total concentrations ranged from 828 to 11,068 ng per cubic meter of air for n-alkanes, from 1714 to 21,710 ng per cubic meter of air for n-alkanoic acids, from 13 to 212 ng per cubic meter of air for PAHs and from 93 to 205 pg per cubic meter of air for N-PAHs. n-Alkanoic acids accounted for 85 and 56% of the total organic composition of the aerosol measured in summer and winter, respectively, were the biggest fraction. The distribution profiles and the diagnostic ratios of some marker compounds allowed to identify the combustion and microbial activity as the major sources of particulate organic pollutants associated with direct emission. The year-time dependence of organic fraction content of aerosol in Oued Smar appeared to be related to average meteorological conditions as well as variability of rate and nature of materials wasted into the landfill.
