Source analysis of carbon monoxide pollution during INDOEX 1999

Wavelet Analysis of Air Pollution due to Carbon Monoxide

Carbon monoxide is the most abundant of the criteria pollutants. High concentration of Carbon monoxide generally occurs in areas with heavy traffic congestion. There are adverse effects on Human health due to the high concentration of CO in the atmosphere. The metropolitan cities are facing such type of problems a lot. In a given signal (data of average CO per day, observed by DPCC Anand Vihar,...

Latitudinal gradients in O3 and CO during INDOEX 1999

[1] Measurements of ozone and carbon monoxide (CO) from the INDOEX 1999 experiment show large differences in concentrations of ozone and CO between the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. These measurements confirm the theory that the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) serves as a barrier to mixing over the Indian Ocean, effectively separating the polluted air in the Northern He...

Measurements of Carbon| Monoxide with the Mopitt Iinstrument 1999-2009

Carbon monoxide is a common pollutant in the troposphere. Produced mainly by incomplete combustion and industrial activity, it has a concentration within the (normal) range of ~50-200ppbv throughout the troposphere. The major sink is its reaction with the hydroxyl (OH) radical. The lifetime of CO is ~20-30days in the troposphere. The fairly long lifetime and the reaction with OH makes CO an int...
