Disjunct Eddy Covariance Measurements of Volatile Organic Compound Fluxes Using Proton Transfer Reaction Mass Spectrometry
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted into the atmosphere from natural and anthropogenic sources, vegetation being the dominant source on a global scale. Some of these reactive compounds are deemed major contributors or inhibitors to aerosol particle formation and growth, thus making VOC measurements essential for current climate change research. This thesis discusses ecosystem scale VO...
متن کاملFinnish Meteorological Institute Contributions No. 72 Development of Biogenic Voc Emission Inventories for the Boreal Forest
The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by vegetation, especially forests, can affect local and regional atmospheric photochemistry through their reactions with atmospheric oxidants. Their reaction products may also participate in the formation and growth of new particles which affect the radiation balance of the atmosphere, and thus climate, by scattering and absorbing shortwave and long...
متن کاملTemperature and light dependence of the VOC emissions of Scots pine
The volatile organic compound (VOC) emission rates of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) were measured from trees growing in a natural forest environment at two locations in Finland. The observed total VOC emission rates varied between 21 and 874 ng g−1 h−1 and 268 and 1670 ng g−1 h−1 in southern and northern Finland, respectively. A clear seasonal cycle was detected with high emission rates in e...
متن کاملSeasonal variation of mono- and sesquiterpene emission rates of Scots pine
The seasonal variation of mono-and sesquiterpene emission rates of Scots pine was measured from April to October in 2004. The emission rates were measured daily in the afternoons with the exception of weekends. Emissions were measured from two branches; one of them was debudded in May (branch A), while the other was allowed to grow new needles (branch B). The monoterpene emission pattern remain...
متن کاملTree water relations can trigger monoterpene emissions from Scots pine stems during spring recovery
Tree canopies are known to emit large amounts of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) such as monoterpenes into the surrounding air. High VOC emission rates from boreal forests have been observed during the transition from winter to summer activity. The most important sources of these are considered to be the green foliage, understory vegetation and soil organisms, but emissions from the living st...
