Abstract:

The conditions of dynamics and transformation of minor atmospheric gases over Lake Baikal are considered based on experimental data and numerical simulation. An event of the spread of a smoke plume from a forest fire at the northwestern shore of Lake Baikal is analyzed. It is shown that powerful sources of nitrogen oxides as forest fires increase the nitrogen dioxide concentration by an order of magnitude and the nitrogen oxide concentration by 1 to 3 orders of magnitude.
