Using atmospheric electrical conductivity as an urban air pollution indicator

Abstract: The atmospheric electrical conductivity as an air pollution indicator was investigated through correlation analyses based on 2 years of daily averaged observations of the atmospheric electrical conductivity, the weather classification index, and the concentrations of aerosol particles, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide at a single site in downtown Toronto from 1973 to 1974. The main findings are the following: (1) The electrical conductivity was negatively and almost linearly correlated to … Show more

“…Η αγωγιμότητα καθώς και οι συγκεντρώσεις μικρών ιόντων 3 (τα οποία είναι υπεύθυνα για την αγωγιμότητα) έχει παρατηρηθεί ότι αντισυσχετίζονται με αέριους ρύπους όπως SO 2 , CO, NO 2 και O 3 (Guo et al, 1996a;Retalis et al, 2009Retalis et al, , 1991Retalis and Retalis, 1998;Retalis, 1977). Η αντισυσχέτιση αυτή προκαλείται με τη δράση των ρύπων μέσω των ακόλουθων μηχανισμών (Guo et al, 1996b): i) ορισμένοι από τους ρύπους δρουν ως πρόδρομες ενώσεις σωματιδίων τα οποία μειώνουν την σ και αυξάνουν το PG, και ii) οι ρύποι δρουν ως παράγοντες εξουδετέρωσης ή επανασύνδεσης των ατμοσφαιρικών ιόντων επιδρώντας στην αγωγιμότητα και τελικά στο PG.…”
