Abstract
Aircraft data collected during the first five intensive and first episode periods of the Sulfate Regional Experiment (SURE) were analyzed through the lowest 3 km of the atmosphere to investigate possible long-range transport and transformation of sulfur pollutants. Results indicate average sulfate concentrations in the lowest 3 km over several stations generally higher in summer than winter, higher in afternoon than morning, and higher in the lower half of the layer than the upper half. Trajectory analyses for episode and non-episode periods in July 1978 show sulfur pollutants emitted in the Ohio River Valley possibly responsible for high sulfate concentrations in rural Pennsylvania and New York.
