The diurnal variation of CO shows sharp morning (07:00-09:00 LT) and evening (07:00-09:00 LT) peaks associated to local anthropogenic activities as well as the impact of the mixed layer height, and low concentrations during daytime (12:00-15:00 LT). The low levels during afternoon hours may be due to the increase of the mixed layer height and the decrease of anthropogenic sources. The seasonal mean CO showed no obvious variation, with highest levels observed in winter (329 ± 52 ppbv), followed by the pre-monsoon (327 ± 57 ppbv), post-monsoon (234 ± 36 ppbv) and monsoon (192 ± 22 ppbv). The high levels of CO during the winter are attributed to increased emissions from anthropogenic sources and a shallow mixed layer height. The vertical distribution of CO showed secondary peaks at high-pressure levels (300-200 hPa) during winter, pre-monsoon, and post-monsoon, which indicates CO transport from different source regions. These findings are reasonably confirmed through the air mass Concentrated Weighted Trajectory (CWT) analysis obtained from the Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model. This study suggests that except for the monsoon, air masses transported from Indo-Gangetic Basin region also contribute to the enhancement of CO concentrations at the receptor site. 2022 artículo científico 0187-6236 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=56580878010 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/565/56580878010/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/565/56580878010/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/565/56580878010/56580878010.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/565/56580878010/movil https://doi.org/10.20937/ATM.52808 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=565 Atmósfera application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Atmósfera (México) Num.1 Vol.35 |
