Zusammenfassung |
Tropospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) pollution has been measured for many years using various techniques. While for example in situ observations in urban monitoring networks detect the NO2 concentration continuously at a particular location, remote sensing techniques provide a larger-spatial scale image of the NO2 distribution but mostly with a smaller temporal coverage. Moreover, the concentration is integrated along the light path.
Here, we introduce the novel ground-based IMPACT (Imaging MaPper for AtmospheriC observaTions) instrument, which is based on the passive Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) method. In contrast to traditional MAX-DOAS instruments measuring in only one direction per time, the new imaging instrument is measuring simultaneously in 50 elevation angles. In addition, the azimuth is adjustable from 0°-360° due to installation of the telescope on a Pan-tilt-head. As a result, complete hemispheric images of NO2 as well as the oxygen dimer O4 around the measurement site are obtained with a temporal resolution of ca. 15 minutes. This provides a detailed insight into the regional NO2 distribution, local sources, transport and diurnal variation.
In addition to instrumental characterization, first data and results are presented from the international CINDI-2 field campaign, which took place in Cabauw, The Netherlands, in summer 2016. |
