Abstract:

A semiempirical model is proposed to describe the seasonal variations of diurnal cycle of mass concentration of continental accumulation-mode aerosol over remote territories. The experimental data of synchronous measurements of this cycle are presented; the measurements have been carried out in winter and summer seasons at two observation sites in Novosibirsk Region 450 km apart. The regularities revealed at the two observation sites are shown to closely agree in each season, but strongly change from season to season. The theoretical model calculations well fit the results of field measurements.
