DIURNAL VARIATION OF SUBMICRON PM SIZE DISTRIBUTIONS AND GASEOUS
POLLUTANT CONCENTRATIONS, PRAGUE 2004, POLLUTION SOURCE ESTIMATION
![Page 2: J. Hovorka*, M.Bra niš * , J.Schwarz **](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020717/56814645550346895db3524a/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Motivation of our work• three years of our air monitoring revealed frequent (30% of days) bimodal pattern of diurnal variation of NOx, NMHC, CH4, CO partially SO2
• first mode 8-9 a.m. traffic rush hours
• second mode 8-10 p.m. NO rush hours
? ARE THESE MEASUREMENTS SITE SPECIFIC ?
? DOES AEROSOL BEHAVE SIMILARY?
? WHAT ARE LIKELY SOURCES?

Parameters determined
5 mins averages

• temperature, humidity, UV-A,B, wind speed/direction
hourly averages

Sampling site
• roof-top aerosol/gasses sampling in University botanical garden in the Prague city center

? SPECIFIC SITE ?
Recorded bimodal pattern is NOT site specific solely for our station but appeared at other sites situated near river valley
Similar pattern in diurnal variation also recorded in other cities in Europe with similar urban architecture and local geography
? AEROSOL TEMPORAL CHANGES?
Temporal variations of aerosol mass/number concentrations also exhibit similar pattern as gaseous components measured
![Page 12: J. Hovorka*, M.Bra niš * , J.Schwarz **](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020717/56814645550346895db3524a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
? SOURCES ?
• nucleation: NO up to 10 of true nucleation events (banana shape) recorded within measured period
• long-range transport: NO particle residence time too short, fast changes of number concentrations, bimodal pattern during low wind speed
• primary emissions from:
traffic
natural gas burning in major sources in proximity to the sampling site: Hospital heating plant Botanical garden boiler apartment/office boilers

CONCLUSIONS• bimodal pattern of diurnal variation of aerosol concentration can be ascribed to traffic and natural gas burning as primary aerosol emission sources
• precise traffic and gas burning apportionment of total aerosol burden in urban atmosphere requires further data on gas burning boilers in residential areas

Acknowledgment
Traffic counts performed by L.Betuš and V.Klapšťová. The station was built and maintained with help of M.Civiš.
The study was done within the scheme of project “Comprehensive characterization of atmospheric aerosol in Prague” No. 205/03/1560 of the Czech Grant Agency.
