A Study of the Intermediate-Range Transport of Secondary Acidic Species
Abstract
dc:descriptionThis research was undertaken to study the transport of acidic species formed from the transformation of gaseous emissions over an intermediate-range (100-200 km) by: (1) Selection, design and calibration of an instrument to separate submicron atmospheric particles, (2) Field sampling and chemical analyses of submicron particles to obtain elemental and ionic concentrations, (3) Determination of a tracer for coal-fired power plants by factor analysis of the chemical data, and (4) Calibration of a hybrid receptor model for the transport of sulfate from a coal-fired power plant.
