Eddy accumulation method

Flux-resolving, fluctuation-based methods In these methods the vertical turbulent eddy flux F is measured as pw c, where overbars and primes denote time means and fluctuations, respectively, and w is the vertical velocity component. They include eddy-covariance and eddy-accumulation methods for measuring fluxes from towers and aircraft. They are not normally regarded as atmospheric inverse methods, since that term usually refers to methods which relate a mean concentration field to a source density or surface flux distribution. [Pg.42]

Schade et al. used PTR-MS to measure in-canopy mixing ratio gradients and abovecanopy fluxes of several VOCs (methanol, acetone, monoterpenes) in a European beech (Fagus sylvatica) forest in Denmark [89]. A relaxed eddy accumulation method was used for the determination of the above-canopy fluxes. The monoterpene emissions and in-canopy mixing ratios showed a diurnal cycle which was found to be consistent with light-dependent emissions, in contrast to temperature-only-driven emissions that had been observed for most conifer species. The measurements also showed that deposition of methanol occurred mostly during the day and that acetone was only emitted once ambient temperatures went above 20°C. [Pg.148]

Eddy Accumulation Eddy accumulation depends on essentially the same conditions and assumptions as those for eddy correlation. In this method, air is collected on two separate filters (or in containers), with the vertical velocity determining which filter (container) receives the sampled air (Hicks and McMillen, 1984). One filter (container) is used for positive vertical velocities and the second is used for negative vertical velocities the instantaneous sampling rate for each filter (container) is proportional to the magnitude of the velocity. The filter (collected air) is then analyzed for the species of interest and the results are used to calculate the net flux (Businger, 1986). [Pg.979]

The vertical concentration profiles of biogenic VOCs in a forest canopy were measured, and there were major differences in VOC emission between daytime and nighttime [70,71]. The canopy fluxes of isoprenoids above the Norway spruce forest were determined by GC and PTR-MS with relaxed eddy accumulation (REA) method [72], In the use of REA, samples were analyzed at two different reservoirs, which depended on the direction of the vertical wind w ( up-draught reservoir in case of w > 0 and down-draught reservoir in case of w < 0). Subsequently, the diurnal variation of biogenic VOCs was measured at 12 m (in the treetop) and at 24 m (above the canopy) [73], By using PTR-MS coupled with the eddy covariance technique and GC-flame ionization detector (FID) with a REA system, the mixing ratios and fluxes of total monoterpenes, from a ponderosa pine plantation [74] and from Scots pine... [Pg.614]

Lee et al. used PTR-MS and eddy covariance methods to determine mixing ratios and fluxes of total monoterpenes above a ponderosa pine plantation [34], The results from these studies were compared to those obtained using GC-FID and a relaxed eddy accumulation system. It was found that the daytime measurements resulted in values that agreed well with each other. However, at night PTR-MS detected additional reactive terpenes which... [Pg.147]

NATURE OF TURBULENCE. Because of its importance in many branches of engineering, turbulent flow has been extensively investigated in recent years, and a large literature has accumulated on this subject. Refined methods of measurement have been used to follow in detail the actual velocity fluctuations of the eddies during turbulent flow, and the results of such measurements have shed much qualitative and quantitative light on the nature of turbulence. [Pg.50]
