Aerosol and rain samples were collected between 48°N and 55°S during the KH-08-2 and MR08-06 cruises conducted over the North
and South Pacific Ocean in 2008 and 2009, to estimate dry and wet deposition fluxes of atmospheric inorganic nitrogen (N).
Inorganic N in aerosols was composed of ~68% NH 4+ and ~32% NO 3– (median values for all data), with ~81% and ~45% of each species being present on fine mode aerosol, respectively. Concentrations
of NH 4+ and NO 3− in rainwater ranged from 1.7–55 μmol L −1 and 0.16–18 μmol L −1, respectively, accounting for ~87% by NH 4+ and ~13% by NO 3− of total inorganic N (median values for all data). A significant correlation ( r = 0.74, p < 0.05, n = 10) between NH 4+ and methanesulfonic acid (MSA) was found in rainwater samples collected over the South Pacific, whereas no significant correlations
were found between NH 4+ and MSA in rainwater collected over the subarctic ( r = 0.42, p > 0.1, n = 6) and subtropical ( r = 0.33, p > 0.5, n = 6) western North Pacific, suggesting that emissions of ammonia (NH 3) by marine biological activity from the ocean could become a significant source of NH 4+ over the South Pacific. While NO 3− was the dominant inorganic N species in dry deposition, inorganic N supplied to surface waters by wet deposition was predominantly
by NH 4+ (42–99% of the wet deposition fluxes for total inorganic N). We estimated mean total (dry + wet) deposition fluxes of atmospheric
total inorganic N in the Pacific Ocean to be 32–64 μmol m −2 d −1, with 66–99% of this by wet deposition, indicating that wet deposition plays a more important role in the supply of atmospheric
inorganic N than dry deposition. 相似文献

The chemical composition, as well as the sources contributing to rainwater chemistry have been determined at Skukuza, in the Kruger National Park, South Africa. Major inorganic and organic ions were determined in 93 rainwater samples collected using an automated wet-only sampler from July 1999 to June 2002. The results indicate that the rain is acidic and the averaged precipitation pH was 4.72. This acidity results from a mixture of mineral acids (82%, of which 50% is H 2SO 4) and organic acids (18%). Most of the H 2SO 4 component can be attributed to the emissions of sulphur dioxide from the industrial region on the Highveld. The wet deposition of S and N is 5.9 kgS⋅ha −1⋅yr −1 and 2.8 kgN⋅ha −1⋅yr −1, respectively. The N deposition was mainly in the form of NH 4
+. Terrigenous, sea salt component, nitrogenous and anthropogenic pollutants have been identified as potential sources of chemical components in rainwater. The results are compared to observations from other African regions. 相似文献

Cloud/fog water samples were collected at Daekwanreung (840 m msl), a ridge site, in South Korea, from March 2002 to September 2003, by using a Caltech type, self fabricated active strand cloud water collector. The pH, electrical conductivity and major ion concentrations were analyzed. The cloud water pH ranged from 3.6 to 6.8 with an average of 5.2, which was close to the atmospheric neutral point. However, the pH calculated from average concentrations of H+ was 4.7, indicating the cloud/fog water was weakly acidified. SO 4
2−, NO 3
− and NH 4
+ are predominant ions of which average concentrations were 203.1, 128.1, and 211.7 μeq⋅L −1, respectively. Samples were categorized into four groups by applying 48-hour back trajectory analysis, using the HYbrid Single-Particle Largrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model. Chemical compositions for the four cases significantly differed from each other. For air masses transported from the East Sea (group E), sea salt concentrations, including Na +, Cl − Mg 2+, were relatively high. Principal acidifying pollutants, such as NO 3
− and nss-SO 4
2−, significantly increased in the case of air masses transported from the Northeast Asian continent through North Korea (group N) and air masses from the Seoul metropolitan area (group W). However, the mean pH of group N was the highest while the mean pH of group W was the lowest. This suggests that most NO 3
− and nss-SO 4
2− in cloud/fog water was neutralized by ammonia and calcium compounds under the influence of air masses transported from Northeast Asia. N/S ratio for the group W was significantly higher than those for the other three groups, suggesting nitrogen species transported from the Seoul metropolitan area contributed to acidification of cloud/fog water at Daekwanreung. Principle Component analysis (PCA) was applied to the cloud/fog water data for presenting characteristics in the four different categories. 相似文献

The heterogeneous interaction of nitrogen dioxide with ammonium chloride was investigated in a molecular diffusion tube experiment
at 295–335 K and interpreted using Monte Carlo trajectory calculations. The surface residence time (τ surf) of NO 2 on NH 4Cl is equal to 15 μs at 295 K, increases with temperature up to 323 K (τ surf = 45 μs) and probably decreases beyond 323 K. The same experiment also yields uptake coefficients, γ, which are derived from
the absolute number of surviving molecules effusing out of the diffusion tube. The rate of uptake of NO 2 on NH 4Cl followed a rate law first order in [NO 2] and the uptake coefficient γ is equal to 7 × 10 −5 at 295 K, increases with temperature up to 323 K (γ = 2.1 × 10 −4) and probably decreases beyond 323 K. Nitrous acid, water and nitrogen were detected as products. From these products, it
is concluded that the reaction of NO 2 with NH 4Cl is a reverse disproportionation reaction where two moles of NO 2 result in ammonium nitrite, NH 4NO 2, as an intermediate, and nitryl chloride, NO 2Cl. NH 4NO 2 decomposes in two pathways, one to nitrous acid, HONO and NH 3, the other to nitrogen and water. The branching ratio for the production of HONO + NH 3 to that of N 2 + H 2O is approximately 20 at 298 K and increases with increasing temperature. 相似文献

Secondary aerosol formation was studied at Allahabad in the Indo-Gangetic region during a field campaign called Land Campaign-II
in December 2004 (northern winter). Regional source locations of the ionic species in PM 10 were identified by using Potential Source Contribution Function (PSCF analysis). On an average, the concentration of water
soluble inorganic ions (sum of anions and cations) was 63.2 μgm −3. Amongst the water soluble ions, average NO 3− concentration was the highest (25.0 μgm −3) followed by SO 42− (15.8 μgm −3) and NH 4+ (13.8 μgm −3) concentrations. These species, contributed 87% of the total mass of water soluble species, indicating that most of the water
soluble PM 10 was composed of NH 4NO 3 and (NH 4) 2SO 4/NH 4HSO 4 or (NH 4) 3H(SO 4) 2 particles. Further, the concentrations of SO 42−, NO 3−, and NH4 + aerosols increased at high relative humidity levels up to the deliquescence point (∼63% RH) for salts of these species suggesting
that high humidity levels favor the conversion and partitioning of gaseous SO 2, NO x, and NH 3 to their aerosol phase. Additionally, lowering of ambient temperature as the winter progressed also resulted in an increase
of NO 3− and NH 4+ concentrations, probably due to the semi volatile nature of ammonium nitrate. PSCF analysis identified regions along the
Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) including Northern and Central Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Northern Pakistan, and parts of Rajasthan
as source regions of airborne nitrate. Similar source regions, along with Northeastern Madhya Pradesh were identified for
sulfate. 相似文献

Long-term measurements of ambient particulate matter less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM 2.5) and its chemical compositions were performed at a rural site in Korea from December 2005 to August 2009. The average PM 2.5 concentration was 31 μg m −3 for the whole sampling period, and showed a slightly downward annual trend. The major components of PM 2.5 were organic carbon, SO 42−, NO 3−, and NH 4+, which accounted for 55 % of total PM 2.5 mass on average. For the top 10 % of PM 2.5 samples, anionic constituents and trace elements clearly increased while carbonaceous constituents and NH 4+ remained relatively constant. Both Asian dust and fog events clearly increased PM 2.5 concentrations, but affected its chemical composition differently. While trace elements significantly increased during Asian
dust events, NO 3−, NH 4+ and Cl were dramatically enhanced during fog events due to the formation of saturated or supersaturated salt solution. The
back-trajectory based model, PSCF (Potential Source Contribution Function) identified the major industrial areas in Eastern
China as the possible source areas for the high PM 2.5 concentrations at the sampling site. Using factor analysis, soil, combustion processes, non-metal manufacture, and secondary
PM 2.5 sources accounted for 77 % of the total explained variance. 相似文献

Using a single drop experiment, the uptake of NO 3 radicals on aqueous solutions of the dye Alizarin Red S and NaCl was measured at 293 K. Uptake coefficients in the range
(1.7–3.1) ⋅ 10 − 3 were measured on Alizarin Red S solutions. The uptake coefficients measured on NaCl solutions were in the range of (1.1–2.0)
⋅ 10 −3 depending on the salt concentration. Both experiments lead to a consistent result for the mass accommodation coefficient
of α NO3 = (4.2 − 1.7+2.2)⋅ 10 −3.
The product H( Dl kCl− II) 0.5 for the NO 3 radical was determined to be (1.9 ± 0.2) M atm − 1 cm s −0.5 M −0.5 s −0.5 by fitting the uptake data for the NaCl solutions to the so-called resistance model.
The yield of the chemical NO 3 radical source was characterized using UV-VIS and FT-IR spectroscopy. The amount of gas-phase NO 3 radicals measured at elevated humidities was less than expected. Instead, a rise of the gas-phase HNO 3 concentration was found indicating a conversion of gas-phase NO 3 radicals to gas-phase HNO 3 on the moist reactor walls. 相似文献

Continuous weekly monitoring on the concentration of gases and aerosols in urban ambient air by a four-stage filter-pack method
was carried out for 7 years in order to study not only the acid-base balance of acid-related (HNO 3, NO 3
−, and non-sea-salt-(nss-)SO 4
2−) and alkali-related (NH 3, NH 4
+, and nss-Ca 2+) chemical species but also its influence on the acidification of precipitation. The concentrations of the total nitrate (=
NO 3− + HNO 3) and nss-SO 42− showed a similar seasonal variation: high in the summer and low in the winter. The total nitrate and nss-SO 42− accounted for 0.43 and 0.57 of the acid-related species, respectively, on an equivalent basis. The total ammonium (= NH 3 + NH 4+) accounted for more than 0.9 of the alkali-related species, except for a springtime nss-Ca 2+ episodic peak. The alkali-related species were generally overabundant compared with the acid-related species in the HNO 3-NO 3−-nss-SO 42−-NH 3-NH 4+-nss-Ca 2+ system. The alkali-rich distribution was especially pronounced in the winter, but the acid-related species was comparable
to the alkali-related species in the summer, which was attributed to the larger H + deposition by precipitation in the summer. This study can provide a methodology to associate survey results obtained by a
filter-pack method with those of precipitation. 相似文献

PM 10 samples were collected over three years at Monzenmachi, the Japan Sea coast, the Noto Peninsula, Ishikawa, Japan from January
17, 2001 to December 18, 2003, using a high volume air sampler with quartz filters. The concentrations of the water-soluble
inorganic ions in PM 10 were determined with using ion chromatography. By analyzing the characteristics of these, the evidences were found that the
Asian outflow had an obviously influence on the air quality at our study site. The results were as follows: the secondary
pollutants SO 42−, NO 3− and NH 4+ were the primary water-soluble inorganic ions at our study site. The monthly mean concentrations of SO 42−, NH 4+, NO 3− and Ca 2+ have prominent peak in spring due to the strong influence of the Asian continent outflow—these according to backward air
trajectory analysis, the maximum of which were 6.09 for nss-SO 42− in May, 2.87 for NO 3− and 0.68 μg m −3 for nss-Ca 2+ in April, respectively. Comparable to similar data reported from various points around East Asia, it had the characteristics
of a polluted coastal area at our study site. The concentration of nss-Ca 2+ in PM 10 drastically increased when the Asian dust invaded, the mean value during the Asian dust days(AD) was 0.86 μg m −3, about 4 times higher than those of normal days (NAD). Meanwhile, the mean concentrations of nss-SO 42−, NO 3− and NH 4+ in AD periods were higher than those in NAD periods which were 5.87, 1.76 and 1.82 μg m −3, respectively, it is due to the interaction between dust and secondary particles during the long-range transport of dust
storms. Finally, according to the source apportionment with positive matrix factorization (PMF) method in this study, the
major source profiles of PM 10 at our study site were categorized as (1) marine salt, (2) secondary sulfate, (3) secondary nitrate and (4) crustal source. 相似文献

The new European Council Directive (PE-CONS 3696/07) frames the inhalable (PM 10) and fine particles (PM 2.5) on priority to chemically characterize these fractions in order to understand their possible relation with health effects.
Considering this, PM 2.5 was collected during four different seasons to evaluate the relative abundance of bulk elements (Cl, S, Si, Al, Br, Cu, Fe,
Ti, Ca, K, Pb, Zn, Ni, Mn, Cr and V) and water soluble ions (F −, Cl −, NO 2
−, NO 3
−, SO 4
2−, Na +, NH 4
+, Ca 2+ and Mg 2+) over Menen, a Belgian city near the French border. The air quality over Menen is influenced by industrialized regions on
both sides of the border. The most abundant ionic species were NO 3
−, SO 4
2− and NH 4
+, and they showed distinct seasonal variation. The elevated levels of NO 3
− during spring and summer were found to be related to the larger availability of the NO x precursor. The various elemental species analyzed were distinguished into crustal and anthropogenic source categories. The
dominating elements were S and Cl in the PM 2.5 particles. The anthropogenic fraction (e.g. Zn, Pb, and Cu) shows a more scattered abundance. Furthermore, the ions and elemental
data were also processed using principal component analysis and cluster analysis to identify their sources and chemistry.
These approach identifies anthropogenic (traffic and industrial) emissions as a major source for fine particles. The variations
in the natural/anthropogenic fractions of PM 2.5 were also found to be a function of meteorological conditions as well as of long-range transport of air masses from the industrialized
regions of the continent.

The present study comprehensively reports the simultaneous measurement of wet deposition of total inorganic nitrogen (TIN; which is the sum of the NH4+-N and NO3?-N) at three different sites in Nr emission hotspot of Indo-Gangetic plain (IGP) over a year-long temporal scale from October 2017 to September 2018. At rural Meetli (MTL) site, urban Baraut (BRT) site and industrial Loni (LNI) site, the annual wet deposition of NH4+-N was estimated as 21.87, 19.48 and 7.43 kg N ha?1 yr?1, respectively; the annual wet deposition NO3?-N was estimated as 12.96, 12.17 and 4.44 kg N ha?1 yr?1, respectively; and the annual wet deposition of TIN was estimated as 34.83, 31.64 and 11.87 kg N ha?1 yr?1, respectively. NH4+-N was dominantly contributing species in annual, monsoon and non-monsoon-time wet deposition of TIN at all sites. The spatial gradient (variability) in percent contribution of NH4+ to total annual volume-weighted mean (VWM) concentration of all analyte ions was observed as MTL (43.23%)?>?BRT (37.90%)?>?LNI (30%). On the other hand, the spatial gradient in percent contribution of NO3? to total annual VWM concentration of all analyte ions was observed as MTL (7.45%)?>?BRT (6.89%)?>?LNI (5.32%). The extremely narrow range of NH4+-N/NO3?-N ratios (ranging from 1.60 at BRT site to 1.69 at LNI site) showed the approximately equal relative abundance of oxidized and reduced nitrogen (N) deposition across all sites. Inferences from enrichment factor analysis, principal component analysis and Pearson’s correlation coefficient analysis suggested that across all sites, virtually all NH4+-N and NO3?-N depositions were originated anthropogenically. The annual wet deposition of TIN measured in this study showed?≥?6865%,?≥?6228% and?≥?2274% increment than the natural N deposition rate at MTL, BRT and LNI site, respectively. These empirically measured annual wet depositions of TIN also emanated theoretical transgression of critical N load threshold across all sites therefore signifying probable undermining of long-term elastic stability and resilience of ecosystems against stressor in the study domain. 相似文献

A comprehensive study on the chemical compositions of rainwater was carried out from June 2007 to December 2008 in Guiyang,
a city located on the acid rain control zone of southwest China. All samples were analyzed for pH, major anions (F −, Cl −, NO 3−, SO 42−), major cations (K +, Na +, Ca 2+, Mg 2+, NH 4+), Sr 2+ and Sr isotope. The pH increase is due to the result of neutralization caused by the alkaline dust which contain large amount
of CaCO 3. It was observed that Ca 2+ was the most abundant cation with a volume-weighted mean (VWM) value of 217.6 μeq/L (52.7–1928 μeq/L), accounting for 66%
(39%–88%) of the total cations. SO 42− was the most abundant anion with VWM value of 237.8 μeq/L (49.6-1643 μeq/L). SO 42− and NO 3− were dominant among the anions, accounting for 66%–97% of the total measured anions. The Sr concentrations vary from 0.01
to 0.92 μmol/L, and strontium isotopic ratios vary in the range of 0.707684–0.710094, with an average of 0.708092. The elements
ratios and the 87Sr/ 86Sr ratios showed that the solutes of rainwater mainly come from weathering of carbonate and secondary dust input. Moreover,
urbanization results in the calcium-rich dust increased and the high concentrations of alkaline ions (mainly Ca 2+) have played an important role to neutralize the acidity of rainwater, leading to the increase of arithmetic pH mean value
by 0.5 units since 2002. It is worth noting that the emission of SO 2 and NO x from the automobile exhaust is increasing and is becoming another important precursor of acid rain now. 相似文献

The chemical compositions (Na +, NH 4 +, K +, Mg 2+, Ca 2+, Cl ?, NO 2 ?, NO 3 ?, SO 4 2?, HCO 3 ?) of wet precipitation and nitrogen isotope compositions δ 15N(NH 4 +) were studied from January to December 2010 in Wroc?aw (SW Poland). Results of a principle component analysis show that 82 % of the data variability can be explained by three main factors: 1) F1 (40 %) observed during vegetative season (electrical conductivity, HCO 3 ?, NO 3 ?, NO 2 ?, NH 4 + and SO 4 2?), mainly controlling rainwater mineralization; 2) F2 (26 %) observed during vegetative and heating seasons (K +, Ca 2+ and Mg 2+), probably representing a combination of two processes: anthropogenic dusts and fertilizers application in agricultural fields, and 3) F3 (16 %) reported mainly during heating season (Na + and Cl ?) probably indicating the influence of marine aerosols. Variations of δ 15N(NH 4 +) from ?11.5 to 18.5?‰ identify three main pathways for the formation of NH 4 +: 1) equilibrium fractionation between NH 3 and NH 4 +; 2) kinetic exchange between NH 3 and NH 4 +; 3) NH 4 + exchange between atmospheric salts particles and precipitation. The coupled chemical/statistical analysis and δ 15N(NH 4 +) approach shows that while fossil fuels burning is the main source of NH 4 + in precipitation during the heating season, during the vegetative season NH 4 + originates from local sewage irrigation fields in Osobowice or agricultural fertilizers. 相似文献

Hoarfrost and rime analysis was based on the collection of samples between 2003 and 2006 from 8 sites, which represent both
lowland (northern) and mountainous (southern) parts of Poland. On the other hand 4 of these sites belong to “urban” and 4
to “rural” category. pH, conductivity, SO 42−, NO 3−, Cl −, H +, NH 4+, Ca 2+, Mg 2+, Na +, K + have been determined in order to study the chemistry of hoarfrost and rime. Higher total inorganic ionic content (TIC) in
hoarfrost and rime (2.46 meq·l −1 and 1.23 meq·l −1 respectively) was observed when compared with precipitation (0.37 meq·l −1). Large variability of TIC and chemical composition of individual samples were typical at each of the measurement sites depending
on emission patterns, atmospheric conditions and local terrain topography. Higher concentrations of both hoarfrost and rime
occurred in southern (mountainous) rather than in northern (lowland) part of Poland which can be explained by worse pollutant
dispersion conditions in the south. The surprisingly low hoarfrost concentrations in urban coastal stations in the area of
the Bay of Gdansk were attributed to the cleaning effect of nocturnal breeze-type circulation, best pronounced in cool part
of the year. Due to relatively high pollutant concentration and long duration, hoarfrost and rime are at least significant
factors in environmental processes in different ecosystems in Poland. 相似文献

Both aerosol and rainwater samples were collected and analyzed for ionic species at a coastal site in Southeast Asia over
a period of 9 months (January–September 2006) covering different monsoons. In general, the occurrence and distribution of
ionic species showed a distinct seasonal variation in response to changes in air mass origins. Real-time physical characterization
of aerosol particles during rain events showed changes in particle number distributions which were used to assess particle
removal processes associated with precipitation, or scavenging. The mean scavenging coefficients for particles in the range
10–500 nm and 500–10 μm were 7.0 × 10 −5 ± 2.8 × 10 −5 s −1 and 1.9 × 10 −4 ± 1.6 × 10 −5 s −1, respectively. A critical analysis of the scavenging coefficients obtained from this study suggested that the wet removal
of aerosol particles was greatly influenced by rain intensity, and was particle size-dependent as well. The scavenging ratios,
another parameter used to characterize particle removal processes by precipitation, for NH 4
+, Cl −, SO 4
2−, and NO 3
− were found to be higher than those of Na +, K +, and Ca 2+ of oceanic and crustal origins. This enrichment implied that gaseous species NH 3, HCl, and HNO 3 could also be washed out readily. These additional sources of ions in precipitation presumably counter-balanced the dilution
effect caused by high total precipitation volume in the marine and tropical area. 相似文献

A partial balance of mineral N is given for the basins of two coastal rivers in a forest zone in the Ivory Coast. The dry and wet depositions on the basin surfaces is given for particulate matter (NO 3
–, NH 4
+). The quantity of mineral N washed away in the rivers is evaluated. The losses from leaching of the soils by rainwater are about 0.33 to 1.0% of the atmospheric depositions for NH 4
+–N and 2.2 to 5.8% for NO 3
––N. The yearly atmospheric input of N compounds to the ecosystem, about 1.4 g N m –2 y –1, is at least 14% of mineral N formed in the soils and is therefore quite significant. 相似文献

The present study investigates the chemical composition of wet atmospheric precipitation samples on a daily and an intra-event
timescales in Opme, an experimental meteorological station located near Clermont-Ferrand, France. The samples have been collected
from November 2005 to October 2007. A total of 217 rainwater samples, integrated for 24 h, were collected and analyzed for
pH, conductivity, Na +, K +, Mg 2+, NH 4+, Ca 2+, Cl −, NO 3− , SO 42− , PO 43− and HCO 3−. The composition of the rainwater collected appeared to be controlled by the following potential sources: neutralisation
process (association among calcium, ammonium with nitrate and sulphate), marine and terrestrial sources. In order to determine
the role of long-range transport, the integrated events were classified according to four origins of air-masses: (1) West,
(2) North and East, (3) South including Iberian and Italian Peninsulae and (4) local. This analysis allows identifying the
source areas of the different association of elements defined. Although calcium is always dominant, total content of rainfall
is variable and neutralisation process can be more or less efficient and specific. Rainout (long-range transport) and washout
(below-cloud scavenging) were investigated through intra-event measurements of chemical species. Four rain-events have been
selected according to the four classes of origins of air-masses. It appears that the first fractions are responsible for an
important part of the chemical content of the whole event. Terrestrial species, locally emitted, induce the neutralisation
process of acid species. Local meteorological conditions, such as wind’s speed and direction, play an important role as they
could provoke recharges of the below cloud air column during the event. 相似文献

The results of a 8 year survey of wet and dry depositions collected in Bologna (Northern Italy) are presented and discussed:
monthly fluxes of the main ions (hydrogen, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, ammoniacal and nitrate nitrogen, sulphate
and chloride) have been registered and statistically discussed. The trend of hydrogen ion, whose largest correlation in the
global deposition was found with sulphate, is clearly downwards, with peaks mainly in winter months. By means of a data factor
analysis, three main sources to explain the variability of the deposition chemistry were recognized: an anthropogenic contribution
(particularly represented by NO 3
−, SO 4
2−, H +), the sea spray (Na +, Cl − and, to a lesser extent, K + and Mg 2+) and a terrigenous fraction, particularly characterized by higher Ca 2+ concentration; however, some concentration peaks of this ion have been found in association with some episodes of Saharan
dust transportation. 相似文献

An in-cloud scavenging case study of the major ions (NH 4
+, SO 4
2- and NO 3
-) determining the cloudwater composition at a mountain site (1620 m.a.s.l.) is presented. A comparison between in-cloud measurements of the cloudwater composition, liquid water content, gas concentrations and aerosol concentrations and pre-cloud gas and aerosol concentrations yields the following results. Cloudwater concentrations resulted from scavenging of about half of the available NH 3, aerosol NH 4
+, aerosol NO 3
-, and aerosol SO 4
2-. Approximately a third of the SO 2 was scavenged by the cloudwater and oxidized to SO 4
2-. Cloud acidity during the first two hours of cloud interception (pH 3.24) was determined mostly by the scavenged gases (NH 3, SO 2, and HNO 3); aerosol contributions to the acidity were found to be small. Observations of gas and aerosol concentrations at three elevations prior to several winter precipitation events indicated that NH 3 concentrations are typically half (12–80 %) of the total (gas and aerosol) N (-III) concentrations. HNO 3 typically is present at much lower concentrations (1–55 %) than aerosol NO 3
-. Concentrations of SO 2 are a substantial component of total sulfur, with concentrations averaging 60 % (14–76 %) of the total S (IV and VI). 相似文献

In the present study, the wet and dry depositions of particulate NO 3−, SO 42−, Cl − and NH 4+ were measured using a wet/dry sampler as a surrogate surface. Gas phase compounds of nitrogen, sulfur and chloride (HNO 3, NH 3, SO 2 and HCl) were measured by an annular denuder system (ADS) equipped with a back up filter for the collection of particles with diameter ≤ 5 μm. Ambient concentrations of NO, NO 2 and SO 2 were also taken into consideration. Sampling was conducted at an urban site in the center of the city of Thessaloniki, northern Greece. The presence of the aerosol species was examined by cold/warm period and the possible compounds in dry deposits were also considered. Dry deposition fluxes were found to be well correlated with ambient particle concentrations in order to be used for the calculation of particle deposition velocity. Average particulate deposition velocities calculated were 0.36, 0.20, 0.20 and 0.10 cm s − 1 for Cl −, NO 3−, SO 42− and NH 4+, respectively. Total dry deposition fluxes (gas and particles) were estimated at 3.24 kg ha − 1 year − 1 for chloride (HCl + p-Cl), 9.97 kg ha − 1 year − 1 for nitrogen oxidized (NO + NO 2 + HNO 3 + p-NO 3), 5.32 kg ha − 1 year − 1 for nitrogen reduced (NH 3 + p-NH 4) and 15.77 kg ha − 1 year − 1 for sulfur (SO 2 + p-SO 4). 70–90% total dry deposition was due to gaseous species deposition. The contribution of dry deposition to the total (wet + dry) was at the level of 60–70% for sulfur and nitrogen (oxidized and reduced), whereas dry chloride deposition contributed 35% to the total. The dry-to-wet deposition ratio of all the studied species was found to be significantly associated with the precipitation amount, with nitrogen species being better and higher correlated. Wet, dry and total depositions measured in Thessaloniki, were compared with other countries of Europe, US and Asia. 相似文献
