REPARTEE: Pollutant Fluxes Eiko Nemitz, Gavin Phillips, Chiara Di Marco, Daniela Famulari, Carole Helfter, Rick Thomas, David Fowler: Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (CEH) Edinburgh Claire Martin, James Dorsey, Martin Gallagher: SEAES, University of Manchester Ben Langford, Brian Davison, Nick Hewitt: University of Lancaster Janet Barlow, Curtis Wood: University of Reading Sue Grimmond: Kings College London A collaboration between NERC CityFlux and REPARTEE

Urban Flux Measurement Campaigns within CityFlux MIRAGE March 2006 Mexico City (19,200,000) June 2003 Boulder, CO (92,000) GOTE2005 Feb Gothenburg (480,000) CityFlux December 2005 Edinburgh (435,000) CityFlux October 2006 London (7,500,000) CityFlux May 2006 Manchester (2,200,000)

Why Measure Urban Pollutant Fluxes? Direct measurement of emissions (unlike emissions derived from concentrations) Independent top-down verification of emission inventories (non reactive compounds) Source attribution (spatial & temporal) Identification of unknown sources Information on chemical processing (reactive compounds)

Micrometeorological Flux Measurement Application of eddy covariance approach to the urban environment (like CO 2 forest flux towers in international networks) Derives vertical flux through the horizontal plane at measurement height Flux footprint averages over several km 2

up-draughts down-draughts Need a rapid (5 -10 Hz) measurement of concentration and wind components Eddy Covariance

Flux Measurements During REPARTEE Eddy-covariance fluxes: CO 2 (18 months) CO Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) – benzene, toluene, methanol, acetone, isoprene, … Particle Number (total, size-segregated) Aerosol Chemical Components (NO 3 -, SO 4 2-, Org) Ozone (REPARTEE-I only) Gradients (BT Tower vs. Regents Park): Further aerosol components O 3, NO, NO 2, SO 2

Gradients above London (REPARTEE-I) How representative is the Park of the average concentration at ground level?

Fluxes of CO 2 and H 2 O (average diurnal cycles) 1. Lower CO 2 net emissions in summer: - No heating related emissions - Net CO 2 uptake by biosphere (parks, gardens) 2. Largest night-time emissions in winter, followed by spring - Highest heating related emissions

Take-Home Messages First independent assessment of emission inventories through direct flux measurements for London Close agreement between measurements and NAEI for CO 2, CO and some VOCs (benzene / toluene) Poor agreement for other oxygenated VOCs Aerosol composition and diurnal pattern in organic aerosol fluxes consistent with significant contribution from cooking (deep frying?) Urban area acts as a significant source for aerosol nitrate during certain conditions (cool, calm, high humdity) Flux measurements provide a further angle to probe chemical signature of local (primary) organic aerosol (ongoing).
