Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To elucidate the formation of sulfate aerosols at a mountainous site in Hokuriku district, the concentrations of trace gases over Imizu City, Toyama, Japan were measured during in summer as well as early spring using a helicopter. The concentrations of hydroperoxides were analyzed by a high performance liquid chromatography system within 5-10 minutes after the sampling. The hydrogen peroxide concentration was lowest at the surface, and the highest concentration was detected at altitudes of 6,000 and 8,000 ft. Significantly high concentrations of hydroperoxides were observed in August 2013 when air pollutants were transported from China. The concentration of hydrogen peroxide was higher than that of sulfur dioxide above 4,000 ft where the potential capacity of sulfur dioxide oxidation in the aqueous phase is large in summer. On the other hand, hydrogen peroxide was mostly lower than sulfur dioxide in the early spring. SO2 oxidation in cloud water may be suppressed during cold seasons.
