Abstract
The results of a back-trajectory analysis of 9-year (2013–2021) measurements of organic (OC) and elemental (EC) aerosol carbon concentrations made at the atmospheric monitoring station near St. Petersburg (Peterhof, 59.88° N, 29.83° E) are presented. The spatial location of sources was estimated by the concentration weighted trajectory (CWT) method in the geographic area 16°–44° E × 48°–68° N. The data allow us to identify the territories with the strongest OC and EC emissions and estimate the seasonal variability of these emissions. In particular, the estimates show that the most intense sources of OC and elemental aerosol carbon in the studied region are located in the Volga-Oka interfluve and on the adjacent territories. It is demonstrated that linear regression coefficients between CWT function values for OC and EC differ for different regions and seasons and may indicate the prevailing type of sources of carbon-containing aerosol particles.
期刊介绍:
Izvestiya, Atmospheric and Oceanic Physics is a journal that publishes original scientific research and review articles on vital issues in the physics of the Earth’s atmosphere and hydrosphere and climate theory. The journal presents results of recent studies of physical processes in the atmosphere and ocean that control climate, weather, and their changes. These studies have possible practical applications. The journal also gives room to the discussion of results obtained in theoretical and experimental studies in various fields of oceanic and atmospheric physics, such as the dynamics of gas and water media, interaction of the atmosphere with the ocean and land surfaces, turbulence theory, heat balance and radiation processes, remote sensing and optics of both media, natural and man-induced climate changes, and the state of the atmosphere and ocean. The journal publishes papers on research techniques used in both media, current scientific information on domestic and foreign events in the physics of the atmosphere and ocean.
