2009년 봄, 여름철 광양만 지역 오존의 광화학적 특성 분석

Abstract

We examined high ozone episodes observed during the intensive measurement periods (11 May~21 June and 30 July~11 August 2009) in the Gulf of Gwangyang. During that period, there were a few events (or days) in which 1 hr averaged ozone concentrations were greater than 100 ppbv. The analysis of ozone budget and photochemical characteristics related to the ozone production was carried out using a photochemical box model. Ozone sensitivity to <TEX>$NO_x$</TEX> and VOCs was also examined in the study area during the measurement period. Diurnal variation of ozone during the episodes was similar to that of odd hydrogen radicals (<TEX>$HO_2,CH_3O_2$</TEX>, and <TEX>$RO_2$</TEX>), suggesting significant correlation with photochemical production of ozone during the episodes. In general, ozone concentration in the study area during the measurement period was sensitive to VOCs, whereas ozone was sensitive to <TEX>$NO_x$</TEX> under certain conditions. Ozone sensitivity assessment using a radical budget analysis and <TEX>$NO_x$</TEX>/VOCs-control strategy was consistent with that using indicator species (<TEX>$H_2O_2/HNO_3$</TEX> ratio).
