4. 13. Influence from long-distance transport, local sources and precipitation on black carbon concentrations at a rural background field station in southern Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Kit Ming Yam; [2019]
   Keywords : Black carbon; black carbon concentrations; Hyltemossa station; Aethalometer; HYSPLIT; long-distance transport; local sources; precipitation; Physics and Astronomy; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : The year 2018 was the first complete year with aerosol observations at the rural background station Hyltemossa in southern Sweden. The aim of this thesis was to analyse and investigate the influence from long-distance transport (LDT) aerosols, local sources and precipitation on the black carbon (BC) mass concentration by utilising the Aethalometer and the HYSPLIT model, which estimated the BC mass concentration ([BC]) and simulated the origin of the LDT air masses to Hyltemossa, respectively.
