| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Methyl chloride (CH3Cl) is the most abundant long-lived volatile organochlorine compound in the atmosphere and thus acts as the major carrier of ozone-destroying chlorine to the stratosphere. To determine CH3Cl flux in tropical forest ecosystems, we developed a canopy-scale flux measurement system besed on the relaxed eddy accumulation (REA) technique which has not been applied to the measurement of CH3Cl flux. We conducted the canopy-scale flux measurements of CH3Cl above a tropical rainforest in Malaysia using the REA technique. The measurements showed a positive flux at the level of microgrom/m2/h, indicating emissions of CH3Cl from the forests to atmosphere.
