  • 2002년 봄철 기간 중 한반도지역에서 관측된 황사는 전례를 찾기 어려울 정도로 고농도의 분진량을 기록하였다. 따라서 이 기간 중에는 전국 각지에 산재한 다수의 초등학교가 임시휴교령을 내려야 하였을 정도로 황사현상의 영향이 대단히 심각하였다. 본 연구진은 서울시 북동부 지점의 관측점으로부터 초미세입자 (PM2.5) 및 미세입자 영역 (PM10)의 부유상입자물질을 황사기간 (3월)과 비황사기간 (4월)에 걸쳐 채집하였다. (중략)

  • 동아시아지역의 산업발달로 인하여 증가한 대기중의 에어로솔들은 도시지역 시정장애의 주요 요인으로 작용하며 강우의 산도를 증가시켜 토양의 산성화를 야기하고 또한 장거리 이동하여 청정지역의 대기오염농도에 주된 요인으로 작용하고 있다. 동아시아지역의 대표적인 오염물질 장거리 이동현상인 황사는 중국에서 발생한 dust storm이 주변 산업지역의 오염된 공기와 이동, 인접국가의 대기오염농도에 직접적인 영향을 끼치는 현상으로 발생빈도는 년간 3-5회 정도 발생한다. (중략)

  • 서울시에서 설치하여 운영중인 대기질 측정소의 입자상물질을 대표하는 PM$_{2.5}$, PM$_{10}$, TSP와 황사기간 중 고용량고기포집기로 채취한 먼지성분을 분석, 평가하였다. 1990년도부터 2002년 11월까지 서울에서 관측된 황사일수는 2000년 이후 발생빈도가 증가하였으며 황사지속시간도 길어지는 경향을 보였다. PM$_{10}$/TSP 비율은 황사시 2000년, 2001년도에 각각 52.9%, 59.4%로 비황사시에 비해 PM$_{10}$의 비율이 약 10% 정도 낮은 것으로 미루어 황사시 10 ${\mu}$m이상의 입경이 큰 입자 영향이 컸던 반면에 2002년 황사시에는 PM$_{10}$의 영향이 오히려 크게 나타나 PM$_{10}$이 TSP 중의 71.4%에 달하였다. 황사가 전체 먼지농도에 미치는 기여율은 2002년도에 PM$_{2.5}$ 11.9%, PM$_{10}$ 23.1%, TSP 19%로 가장 높은 기여도를 보여 황사가 전체 면지농도에 미치는 영향이 매우 크다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • This study is to investigate the air pollution characteristics of an industrialized midsize west-coastal city by comparing air quality to a neighboring inland city. The hourly averaged data of $O_3$, $SO_2$, $NO_2$, CO, and $PM_{10}$ measured from continuous air quality monitoring sites in Gunsan (coastal) and Jeonju (inland) were analyzed. The data set covers the period from 2004 to 2006. The annual average concentrations of the air pollutants in two cities were compared in their abundances and temporal trends as well. $O_3$ and $SO_2$ in Gunsan were relatively higher than those in Jeonju, while vice versa in case of $NO_2$ and $PM_{10}$. It seems that heavy automobile emissions from Jeonju mainly bring on higher $NO_2$ and $PM_{10}$ than those in Gunsan on annual base. $NO_2$ concentrations in both cities showed bimodal diurnal variations with peaks in the morning and in the late evening. These peaks correspond to the coupled effects of rush hour traffic and meteorological conditions (i.e., variation of mixing height and dispersion conditions). Maximum hourly averages of $NO_2$ ranged from 18 ppb to 28 ppb at Jeonju, and from 12 ppb to 20 ppb at Gunsan. $O_3$ showed typical diurnal variation with a maximum in the afternoon between 14:00 and 16:00 LST. Diurnal variations of CO and $PM_{10}$ were similar to $NO_2$ while $SO_2$ was similar to $O_3$. Seasonal variations of $PM_{10}$ in both cities indicated that their concentrations during spring season were significantly high. Asian dust storms occur frequently during spring and seem to affect increase in $PM_{10}$. High $O_3$ and $PM_{10}$ days were selected from both cities. The analyses based on the HYSPLIT trajectory model during the high $O_3$ and $PM_{10}$ showed these episodes (six cases) were mostly coincident with Asian dust storm originated from northern China and Mongolia. However, these high air pollution episodes in the west coastal cities may not only be caused by the Asian dust but also affected by other air pollutants transported from China accompanying the Asian dust.

  • Concentrations of ambient air particles such as total suspended particulates (TSP), particulate matter $(PM)_{10}$, and $PM_{2.5}$, were monitored simultaneously from May to June, 2007, at four locations at Alashan and Beijing in China, and Seoul and Gosan in South Korea. These monitoring sites are in the pathway of Asian dust (AD) storms traveling from China to the Korean peninsula. An AD event was observed in the Korean peninsula on May 25-26. During the sampling period, the average concentrations of TSP and PM10 were each higher than $150\;{\mu}g/m^3$ in Alashan and Beijing, but not in Seoul and Gosan. The concentration of TSP in Alashan (where the dust storm originated) on the day of the AD event reached $1824.7\;{\mu}g/m^3$, this being the highest concentration of air particles observed during the sampling period. The level was decreased to 15% of this ($274.7\;{\mu}g/m^3$) in Seoul and to 8.7% ($159.0\;{\mu}g/m^3$) in Gosan when the AD was observed two days later in Korea. Gosan, a representative background site in East Asia, displayed the lowest concentration of particles, with this maximal TSP concentration of $159\;{\mu}g/m^3$. Inorganic element contents in the air particles were also measured, and the concentrations in the four different regions compared. Concentrations of anthropogenically-enriched heavy metals in $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$, such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury, were higher in the metropolitan cities of Beijing and Seoul compared to non-industrialized regions of Alashan and Gosan. However, the concentrations of inorganic soil elements including iron, magnesium, aluminum sodium, and manganese, were higher in Alashan compared to those in other sampling sites.

  • An orchestrated attempt was made to analyze samples of bulk and individual particulate matters (PM) collected at the Gosan ground-based station on the west coast of Jeju, Korea. A two-stage filter pack sampler was operated to collect particles in both large (> $1.2\;{\mu}m$) and small size fractions (< $1.2\;{\mu}m$) between the Asian dust (hereafter called "AD") storm event and non-Asian dust period. Elemental components in bulk and individual particles were determined by PIXE and synchrotron XRF analysis systems, respectively. To assess the transport pathways of air parcels and to determine the spatial distribution of PM, the backward trajectories of the Meteorological Data Explorer (Center for Global Environmental Research, 2010) and the NOAA's HYSPLIT dispersion-trajectory models were applied. In line with general expectations, Si and other crustal elements in large size particles showed considerably higher mass loading on AD days in comparison with non-AD days. Computation of the crustal enrichment factors [(Z/Si)$_{particle}$/(Z/Si)$_{desert}$ sand] of elements in large size particles (> $1.2\;{\mu}m$) allowed us to estimate the source profile and chemical aging of AD particles as well as to classify the soil-origin elements. On the basis of a single particle analysis, individual AD particles are classified into three distinct groups (neutralized mineral particles, S-rich mineral particles, and imperfectly neutralized particles).
