Zusammenfassung |
We have modelled the total atmospheric OH-reactivity in a boreal forest and
investigated the individual contributions from gas phase inorganic species,
isoprene, monoterpenes, and methane along with other important VOCs. Daily
and seasonal variation in OH-reactivity for the year 2008 was examined as
well as the vertical OH-reactivity profile. We have used SOSA; a
one dimensional vertical chemistry-transport model (Boy et al., 2011a) together
with measurements from Hyytiälä, SMEAR II station, Southern Finland,
conducted in August 2008. Model simulations only account for ~30–50%
of the total measured OH sink, and in our opinion, the reason for missing
OH-reactivity is due to unmeasured unknown BVOCs, and limitations in our
knowledge of atmospheric chemistry including uncertainties in rate constants.
Furthermore, we found that the OH-reactivity correlates with both organic and
inorganic compounds and increases during summer. The summertime canopy level
OH-reactivity peaks during night and the vertical OH-reactivity decreases
with height. |
