Zusammenfassung |
Observations during the 2006 dry season of highly elevated
concentrations of cyanides in the atmosphere above Mexico City (MC)
and the surrounding plains demonstrate that biomass burning (BB)
significantly impacted air quality in the region. We find that during
the period of our measurements, fires contribute more than half of the
organic aerosol mass and submicron aerosol scattering, and one third
of the enhancement in benzene, reactive nitrogen, and carbon monoxide
in the outflow from the plateau. The combination of biomass burning
and anthropogenic emissions will affect ozone chemistry in the MC
outflow. |
