In this study, the chemical composition and sources of carboxylates and other water-soluble ions in fine and coarse aerosols as well as estimates of particle dry deposition fluxes were studied at a tropical coastal site affected by an urban environment. The mean concentrations of the total carboxylates were 78 ng m -3 in fine fraction and 81 ng m -3 in coarse fraction of particulate matter (PM). The corresponding values for the total inorganic ions were 2143 ng m -3 and 4880 ng m -3 respectively. Main sources for fine particles were: (i) photochemical formation of carboxylic acids in vapor phase and a posterior gas-to-particle conversion onto sea salt particles; (ii) emissions from anthropic sources with long range transportation processes; and (iii) the interchanging of volatile species among atmospheric phases. In turn, for coarse particles, the predominant sources were: (i) gas-phase species and ab/adsorbed onto pre- existing particles afterwards; (ii) primary emission of coarse particles from anthropogenic sources; and (iii) sea salt spray and/or soil resuspension. Finally, particle dry deposition was a very important mechanism representing air-to-sea fluxes of major species. 2014 artículo científico 0001-3765 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32730090004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=327 Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Ciências Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.86 |
