Boundary Condition – CO flux at surface
The amplitude of CO flux at the surface is based on the total emission of CO in the MRSP (1.48 million of tons per year) divided by number of days in one year and by the area representative of traffic in São Paulo (8,051 km2).
In reality the value of Bco was set equal to 1/6 of the value above. This was obtained by trial and error and there is no apparent reason.

Results
• The results are based on the three-dimensional fields generated after turbulence has reached quasi-steady equilibrium;
• The statistics were obtained ensemble averaging 15 outputs, separated by 1200 time steps each, corresponding to 20 minutes. Important to emphasize that the time step is 1 second;
• Statistical properties are estimated at 8:30, 9:30, 10:30, 11:30 and 12:30 LT.

Conclusion
• Simulation of daytime evolution PBL over the MRSP carried out using LES model indicated several characteristics consistent with a convective PBL.
• The simulated diurnal evolution of CO concentration indicates that entrainment of clean air at the top of the PBL is one of the dominant mechanism reducing the concentration of CO at the surface as observed in São Paulo during the winter.

Conclusion
• Comparison between entrainment, surface emission and hypothetical horizontal advection indicates that this late mechanism could be responsible by considerable reducing in the CO diurnal evolution in the city of Sao Paulo.
• Next step would be evaluated the role of horizontal advection.
