چکیده
The molecular characteristics and formation mechanism of biogenic secondary organic aerosols (BSOAs) in the forested atmosphere are poorly known. Here, we report temporal variations processes BSOA tracers derived from isoprene, monoterpenes, β caryophyllene PM2.5 samples collected at foot Mt. Huang (483 m a. s. l) East China during summer 2019 with a 3 h time resolution. concentrations nearly all detected species, including carbon (OC), elemental (EC), levoglucosan, SIA (sum SO42−, NO3−, NH4+), were higher night (19:00–7:00 next day) than daytime (7:00–19:00). In addition, air pollutants that accumulated by dynamic transport mountain breeze also crucial reason for tracers. Most exhibited peaked 1:00 to 4:00 or 7:00. Those presented strong correlations O3 rather night, indicating BSOAs primarily photo-oxidation BVOCs O3. close SO42− particle acidity (pHis) suggest acid-catalyzed aqueous-phase oxidation. Considering relative humidity LWC concentration promoted aqueous oxidation was essential night. Moreover, levoglucosan robust correlation tracers, especially β-caryophyllinic acid, suggesting biomass burning long-distance exerted significant impact on formation. Based tracer-based method, estimated (SOC) (0.90 ± 0.57 µgC m−3) those (0.53 0.34 daytime, accounting 14.5 8.5% 12.2 5.0% OC, respectively. Our results reveal mountain-valley breezes anthropogenic long-range transport.

متن کاملSecondary production of organic aerosols from biogenic VOCs over Mt. Fuji, Japan.
We investigated organic molecular compositions of summertime aerosols collected at the summit of Mt. Fuji (3776 m a.s.l.) in July-August 2009. More than 120 organic species were identified using GC/MS. Concentrations of both primary and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) tracers in whole-day samples were 4-20 times higher than those in nighttime samples, suggesting that valley breeze is an efficie...

The meso-scale chemistry-transport model CHIMERE is used to assess our understanding of major sources and formation processes leading to a fairly large amount of organic aerosols – OA, including primary OA (POA) and secondary OA (SOA) – observed in Mexico City during the MILAGRO field project (March 2006). Chemical analyses of submicron aerosols from aerosol mass spectrometers (AMS) indicate th...
