Evaluation of a number of chemical mechanisms for their application in models describing the formation of photochemical ozone in Europe

A series of 24 chemical mechanisms from the literature are compared against each other using harmonized emissions, photolysis rate coefficients for simple inorganic chemistry and life cycle data for ozone, PAN and H₂O₂. The evaluation sought to understand the impact of parameterizing hydrocarbon oxidation on the peak concentrations of photochemically-generated secondary pollutants. Only seven of the 24 chemical mechanisms gave peak concentrations of ozone, PAN and H₂O₂ simultaneously in their respective central ranges. PAN and H₂O₂ were generally calculated with a much lower precision compared to ozone. Only 11 mechanisms out of 24 gave responses to both 50% hydrocarbons and NO_x emissions controls in their respective central bands. The lack of coordinated ozone, PAN and hydrogen peroxide measurements across Europe currently limits the adequacy of model comparisons and hence the confidence which may be placed in assessments of likely impacts of future control strategies.     

The influence of the nocturnal boundary layer on secondary trace species in the atmosphere at Dorset,Ontario

The impact of the nocturnal boundary layer (NBL) on the concentrations of O₃, H₂O₂, PAN and CH₂O has been studied for two 4-day periods, one in the summer of 1989 and the other in the spring of 1990. Where the presence of the nocturnal layer is clear, O₃, PAN and CH₂O concentrations decrease rapidly and these species appear to be deposited to the surface. Break-up of the inversion in the morning returns concentrations to levels typical of the previous day. H₂O₂ is removed much faster than the other species and it is replenished much more slowly. This appears to be due to the H₂O₂ dissolving in water droplets resulting from the rapid cooling of the air. There is evidence for a morning maximum in PAN, likely due to the combination of high concentrations being brought downwards during the break-up of the NBL followed by thermal decomposition.     

广州番禺大气成分站一次典型光化学污染过程PAN和O3分析

通过对广州番禺大气成分站（GPACS）的光化学相关污染物（O₃、PAN、VOCs、NO₂、NO）以及气象要素进行观测,分析2010~2016年期间发生在广州地区一次典型光化学污染过程.结果表明,该光化学污染过程期间,O₃和PAN总体体积分数比较高,最大O₃小时体积分数为140.6×10^-9,而最大PAN小时体积分数为4.7×10^-9.NO整体体积分数较低,对O₃的化学滴定和PAN的去除影响较小.NO₂整体体积分数较高、辐射较强和风速较低则有利于O₃和PAN的形成和积累.PAN和O₃具有一定的线性关系（R²=0.55）,而形成PAN和O₃前体物VOCs物种不完全相同影响着它们的线性关系,在生成PAN的VOCs物种中,乙烯、丙烷、异戊二烯和甲苯所占的比例较大,而对臭氧生成潜势较大的物种有异戊二烯、1,3,5-三甲苯、丙烯、间,对-二甲苯以及甲苯.对PA自由基体积分数进行估算,发现它的日均值体积分数在0.11×10^-12~0.16×10^-12范围变化,远高于其它地区,表明此次发生的光化学反应较为强烈.     

Measurement of hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxide concentrations during autumn in Beijing, China

Gaseous peroxides play important roles in atmospheric chemistry. To understand the pathways of the formation and removal of peroxides, atmospheric peroxide concentrations and their controlling factors were measured from 7:00 to 20:00 in September, October, and November 2013 at a heavily trafficked residential site in Beijing, China, with average concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and methyl hydroperoxide (MHP) at 0.55 ppb and 0.063 ppb, respectively. H₂O₂ concentrations were higher in the afternoon and lower in the morning and evening, while MHP concentrations did not exhibit a regular diurnal pattern. Both H₂O₂ and MHP concentrations increased at dusk in most cases. Both peroxides displayed monthly variations with higher concentrations in September. These results suggested that photochemical activity was the main controlling factor on variations of H₂O₂ concentrations during the measurement period. Increasing concentrations of volatile organic compounds emitted by motor vehicles were important contributors to H₂O₂ and MHP enrichment. High levels of H₂O₂ and MHP concentrations which occurred during the measurement period probably resulted from the transport of a polluted air mass with high water vapor content passing over the Bohai Bay, China.     

Measurements of H2O2, aldehydes and organic acids in Los Angeles rainwater: Their sources and deposition rates

Rainwater samples were collected in Los Angeles, during 1985–1991 to determine concentration levels, sources and deposition rates of atmospheric H₂O₂, aldehydes and organic acids, in addition to major cations, anions and pH. Volume-weighted mean concentrations of H₂O₂, aldehydes (formaldehyde + acetaldehyde + glyoxal + methylglyoxal) and organic acids (formic acid + acetic acid) in rain collected at Westwood were 4.4., 3.9 and 16.5 μM, respectively, during the 6-year study period. Monocarboxylic organic acids were estimated to account for 27% (2–80%) of total free acidity (as on overall average) in rain collected at Westwood, whereas sulfuric acid and nitric acid accounted for 39% and 34% of the total acidity, respectively. Concentrations of aldehydes were strongly dependent on precipitation volume and decreased with increasing precipitation volume, whereas H₂O₂ and organic acids were only weakly dependent on precipitation volume. These results indicate that concentrations of aldehydes in rain are mainly controlled by dilution, whereas H₂O₂ and organic acid concentrations are controlled by other factors, such as decomposition of H₂O₂ by reacting with S(IV) and continuous aqueous formation/decomposition of organic acids by reactions involving aldehydes, dissolved OH radicals and H₂O₂. Principal component analyses indicate that aldehydes in rainwater mainly originate from gases and aerosols derived from anthropogenic sources, whereas the sources of H₂O₂ and organic acids in rain do not correlate with anthropogenic sources or marine and continental sources. There is good agreement between reported gas-phase concentrations of H₂O₂, aldehydes and organic acids in Los Angeles and calculated equilibrium concentrations of these chemical species from their rainwater concentrations and Henry's law constants. Temporal variations of concentrations of chemical species indicate that H₂O₂, aldehydes and organic acids were highest in the early afternoon. Summer rains contained the highest concentration of these chemical species, suggesting the photochemical activities during rain storms significantly affect their concentration levels. Estimation of annual rate of wet and dry depositions of H₂O₂, aldehydes and organic acids for the period studied, indicates that 84% of H₂O₂, 97% of aldehydes and 94% of organic acids, respectively, are annually scavenged from the atmosphere, by dry deposition, which is the dominant process for removal of these atmospheric pollutants in Los Angeles.     

南京夏季大气臭氧光化学特征与敏感性分析

对流层臭氧（O₃）主要由氮氧化物（NO_x）和挥发性有机物（VOCs）经过一系列光化学反应生成,反应过程呈现复杂的非线性关系.为深入了解O₃的光化学特征及生成机制,利用2018年夏季大气O₃与VOCs的观测数据,结合大气零维框架模拟模型F0AM-MCM,研究O₃超标日和非O₃超标日的O₃光化学特征之间的差异性.观测结果表明,O₃超标日期间φ（O₃）和φ（TVOCs）的平均值分别为47.8×10^-9和49.0×10^-9,为非O₃超标日期间O₃（26×10^-9）和TVOCs（30×10^-9）体积分数的1.8倍和1.6倍.使用F0AM模型,借助EKMA曲线和RIR分析等识别O₃敏感性,发现南京市O₃超标日和非O₃超标日O₃的形成均主要受VOCs和NO_x的协同控制.F0AM-MCM模拟结果表明,在O₃超标日,·OH和HO₂的日平均混合比分别是非O₃超标日的1.3倍和1.8倍,表明O₃超标日期间具有更强的大气氧化能力,且·OH和HO₂的形成和损失速率也有明显的增加,表明自由基循环的增强.此外,O₃超标日的O₃生成速率明显高于非O₃超标日,从而导致了O₃超标日的O₃净生成速率明显高于非O₃超标日.以上发现提高了对南京夏季O₃超标日大气O₃光化学特征的认识.

Seasonal and diurnal variations of atmospheric peroxyacetyl nitrate, peroxypropionyl nitrate, and carbon tetrachloride in Beijing

Atmospheric peroxyacetyl nitrate(PAN), peroxypropionyl nitrate(PPN), and carbon tetrachloride(CCl4) were measured from September 2010 to August 2011 in Beijing. PAN exhibited low values from mid-autumn to early spring(October to March) with monthly average concentrations ranging from 0.28 to 0.73 ppbV, and increased from early spring to summer(March to August), ranging from 1.37–3.79 ppbV. The monthly variation of PPN was similar to PAN, with low values(below detection limit to 0.18 ppbV) from mid-autumn to early spring, and a monthly maximum in September(1.14 ppbV). The monthly variation of CCl4was tightly related to the variation of temperature, exhibiting a minimum in winter(69.3 pptV) and a maximum of 180.6 pptV in summer. Due to weak solar intensity and short duration, PAN and O3showed no distinct diurnal patterns from morning to night during winter, whereas for other seasons, they both exhibited maximal values in the late afternoon(ca. 15:00 to 16:00 local time) and minimal values during early morning and midnight. Good linear correlations between PAN and PPN were found in autumn(R = 0.91), spring(R = 0.94), and summer(R = 0.81), with slopes of 0.130, 0.222, and 0.133, respectively, suggesting that anthropogenic hydrocarbons dominated the photochemical formation of PANs in Beijing. Positive correlation between PAN and O3 in summer with the low slopes( O3 / PAN) ranging from 9.92 to 18.0 indicated serious air pollution in Beijing, and strong negative correlation in winter reflected strong O3consumption by NO titration and less thermal decompositin of PAN.     

北京市大气光化学氧化剂污染研究

根据在北京市开展的光化学氧化剂系列研究,讨论北京市主要光化学氧化剂O₃,H₂O₂和有机过氧化物的污染浓度水平及其污染特征,探讨光化学氧化剂的形成机制及其主要影响因素。结果表明,北京市存在严重的光化学氧化剂污染,中关村大气臭氧(0₃)最大浓度不仅逐年递增,而O₃最大值的出现时间也提前,说明大气光化学活性逐年增强。光化学烟雾的重要产物过氧化氢(H₂O₂)和甲基过氧化氢(MHP)的浓度水平较高,最大浓度分别为3.69和3.26ug/m3。日益严重的大气NO_x污染为光化学氧化剂的生成提供了充足的前体物,北京市的大气污染己逐渐转为机动车尾气污染型,控制北京市光化学氧化剂污染的有效途径是降低NO_x排放。      

Sulfur dioxide,hydrogen sulfide,total reduced sulfur,chlorinated hydrocarbons and photochemical oxidants in southern California museums

Indoor and outdoor concentrations of the air pollutants ozone, NO₂, SO₂, H₂S, total reduced sulfur (TRS), peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), methyl chloroform and tetrachloroethylene, have been measured at three southern California museums. Indoor maxima were 175 ppb for NO₂, 77 ppb for O₃, 0.7 ppb for PAN, 1.2 ppb for C₂Cl₄, >6.3 ppb for CH₃CCl₃, 2.5 ppb for SO₂, 1.4 ppb for TRS, and 46 ppt for H₂S. Indoor levels and indoor/outdoor (I/O) ratios for the chlorinated hydrocarbons pointed out to indoor sources. Outdoor and indoor levels of SO₂ and TRS were low at all three museums, but I/O ratios for SO₂ were high and averaged 0.89. H₂S concentrations were low, 16–46 ppt at one museum and less than 6 ppt at the other two museums. I/O ratios for the air pollutants with outdoor sources (ozone, PAN and NO₂) showed substantial variations, from low values of 0.02–0.33 at locations without influx of outdoor air to high values of 0.85–0.88 at locations experiencing high influx of outdoor air. Of the 10 institutions we have surveyed in southern California to date, eight exhibit high I/O ratios, e.g. 0.60–1.00 for PAN. Of the four museums surveyed that were equipped with HVAC and chemical filtration, only two yielded the expected low I/O ratios.     

Modelling the role of nitrogen oxides,hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in the global formation of tropospheric oxidants

A new zonally averaged two-dimensional chemical and transport model of the lower atmosphere has been used to study the budgets of photochemical oxidants on a global scale in the troposphere. The sensitivities of these budgets to controls on the emissions of NO_x, CO and hydrocarbons from a variety of sources have also been considered. The species studied include O₃, PAN, H₂O₂ and organic peroxides, as well as the global budget of the hydroxyl radical. The results show the relative impacts of emissions from natural and from man-made sources. Overall, some 75% of the turnover of tropospheric ozone results from in situ chemical production, with only 25% having its origins in the stratosphere. The respective fractions for chemical loss and dry deposition are similar. Of the ozone formed in situ, approximately one-third is formed from natural emissions, and two-thirds from man-made emissions. Over half of this man-made contribution is due to industrial society, with much of the rest being caused by biomass burning and methane emitted from paddy fields. Although reducing emissions of NO_x is the most effective way of controlling tropospheric O₃, this also increases the inventories of peroxides and the rate of increase in the concentration of methane, due to a reduction in the inventory of the OH radical. It is, therefore, necessary to control the emissions of a wide range of species in order to reduce the budget of all photochemical oxidants without adversely perturbing the budget of CH₄.     

Wintertime peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) in the megacity Beijing: Role of photochemical and meteorological processes

Previous measurements of peroxyacetyl nitrate(PAN) in Asian megacities were scarce and mainly conducted for relative short periods in summer. Here, we present and analyze the measurements of PAN, O3, NOx, etc., made at an urban site(CMA) in Beijing from 25 January to 22 March 2010. The hourly concentration of PAN averaged 0.70 × 10 9mol/mol(0.23 × 10 9–3.51 × 10 9mol/mol) and was well correlated with that of NO2but not O3, indicating that the variations of the winter concentrations of PAN and O3in urban Beijing are decoupled with each other. Wind conditions and transport of air masses exert very significant impacts on O3, PAN, and other species. Air masses arriving at the site originated either from the boundary layer over the highly polluted N-S-W sector or from the free troposphere over the W-N sector. The descending free-tropospheric air was rich in O3, with an average PAN/O3ratio smaller than 0.031, while the boundary layer air over the polluted sector contained higher levels of PAN and primary pollutants, with an average PAN/O3ratio of 0.11. These facts related with transport conditions can well explain the observed PAN-O3decoupling. Photochemical production is important to PAN in the winter over Beijing. The concentration of the peroxyacetyl(PA) radical was estimated to be in the range of 0.0014 × 10 12–0.0042 × 10 12 mol/mol. The contributions of the formation reaction and thermal decomposition to PAN's variation were calculated and found to be significant even in the colder period in air over Beijing, with the production exceeding the decomposition.     

Comparison of H2O2 and O3 content in atmospheric samples in the San Bernardino mountains,Southern California

Concentrations of atmospheric H₂O₂ were measured in air, rain, cloud and dew samples in forested areas of the San Bernardino Mountains, southern California, from spring through fall of 1987–1990 O₃ measurements in air were also conducted for comparison. Typical ranges of H₂O₂ concentrations measured were 1–3 ppb in air, 10–90 μM in rain and cloud water, and < μM in dew. The results show that gas-phase H₂O₂ concentrations were slightly higher at nighttime than at daytime or nearly constant throughout a 24-hr period, whereas O₃ concentrations were highest during the afternoon, when polluted air masses from Los Angeles carried by daily sea breezes reached the mountain region. Afternoon concentrations of gaseous H₂O₂ and O₃ in the mountain region were compared with those measured in Los Angeles urban sites to elucidate the regional variation of these oxidants. The results show that ambient concentrations of H₂O₂ and O₃ were about 50–100% higher at the mountains sites than at the Los Angeles sites.     

A case study of ozone production in a rural area of central ontario

An O₃ episode observed at Dorset, a rural site in central Ontario, during a stagnant high pressure period of the intensive Eulerian Model Evaluation Field Study (EMEFS), in the summer of 1988, is simulated using a photochemical box model with a two-layer treatment. In the model analysis, natural hydrocarbon chemistry is simulated based on an isoprene-only scenario. Sensitivity tests indicate that local isoprene emissions are an important contributor to local O₃ production, relative to anthropogenic hydrocarbons (AHCs), during the event.The model calculated isoprene contribution to the local O₃ production, defined as the ratio of the O₃ amount formed in the absence of AHCs to that in the presence of AHCs, is characterized by a strong NO_x dependence. A minimum value (∼50%) of the contribution was found at a NO_x level of ∼ 6 ppbv for the representative hydrocarbon composition during the episode. At this NO_x level, O₃ production was strongly influenced by the presence of AHCs. At significantly higher or lower NO_x levels, isoprene is more important than AHCs in the local O₃ production.

Fast increasing of surface ozone concentrations in Pearl River Delta characterized by a regional air quality monitoring network during 2006-2011

Based on the observation by a Regional Air Quality Monitoring Network including 16 monitoring stations, temporal and spatial variations of ozone(O3), NO2and total oxidant(Ox) were analyzed by both linear regression and cluster analysis. A fast increase of regional O3concentrations of 0.86 ppbV/yr was found for the annual averaged values from 2006 to 2011 in Guangdong, China. Such fast O3increase is accompanied by a correspondingly fast NOx reduction as indicated by a fast NO2 reduction rate of 0.61 ppbV/yr. Based on a cluster analysis, the monitoring stations were classified into two major categories – rural stations(non-urban) and suburban/urban stations. The O3concentrations at rural stations were relatively conserved while those at suburban/urban stations showed a fast increase rate of 2.0 ppbV/yr accompanied by a NO2 reduction rate of 1.2 ppbV/yr. Moreover, a rapid increase of the averaged O3 concentrations in springtime(13%/yr referred to 2006 level) was observed, which may result from the increase of solar duration, reduction of precipitation in Guangdong and transport from Eastern Central China. Application of smog production algorithm showed that the photochemical O3production is mainly volatile organic compounds(VOC)-controlled. However, the photochemical O3production is sensitive to both NOx and VOC for O3pollution episode. Accordingly, it is expected that a combined NOx and VOC reduction will be helpful for the reduction of the O3 pollution episodes in Pearl River Delta while stringent VOC emission control is in general required for the regional O3 pollution control.     

Studying high ozone concentrations by using the Danish Eulerian model

The long-range transport of air pollutants (LRTAP) over Europe is studied by a mathematical model based on a system of partial differential equations (PDEs). The number of PDEs is equal to the number of species studied and the model contains 35 species at present. Among the species are NO, NO₂, NO₃⁻, HNO₃, NH₃, NH₄⁺, O₃, PAN, SO₂, SO₄²⁻ and may hydrocarbons. Most of the 70 chemical reactions involved in the model are nonlinear (including here many photochemical reactions).The model requires large sets of input data. Emissions of SO₂, NO_x, NH₃ and both natural and anthropogenic volatile organic compounds (VOC) are needed in the model. The meteorological data consist of fields of wind velocities, precipitation, surface temperatures, temperatures of the boundary layer, relative humidities and cloud cover, which are read in the beginning of every 6-h interval. Both daytime and nighttime mixing heights are used in the model.Many of the species in the model vary on a diurnal basis. An investigation of the main mechanisms that determine the diurnal variation of the ozone concentrations is performed. One of the important conditions that is necessary if one wants to represent correctly the diurnal variations of the concentrations is to have access to meteorological data that vary diurnally. This is especially true for the temperature and the mixing height.The use of modern numerical algorithms (which are combined with vectorization of the most time-consuming numerical procedures) allows one to perform long-term runs with the model on several high-speed computers. Results obtained in runs with meteorological data for July 1985 and August–October 1989 are discussed. The computed concentrations and depositions are compared with measurements taken at stations located in different European countries. The agreement between calculated concentrations and measurements is reasonably good.Results obtained with several scenarios, in which the NO_x emission and/or the anthropogenic VOC emissions are varied, are presented. Several main conclusions are drawn by studying the results obtained during the comparisons. Some plans for future development of the models are discussed.
