Optical techniques for measurements of atmospheric trace gases
(1994)- Abstract
- Differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) and differential absorption lidar
(DIAL) have been used for measurement of atmospheric trace gases.
A fully automated system for atmospheric pollution monitoring of a medium-sized city
has been constructed, based on the DOAS technique. Detection of ammonia and aromatic
hydrocarbons in the ultraviolet spectral region has been investigated and demonstrated.
The possibility of improved sensitivity in DOAS measurements of ozone in the
wavelength range around 283 nm has been investigated and demonstrated.
The applicability of the DIAL technique for total flux measurements of industrial
emissions has been demonstrated.... (More) - Differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS) and differential absorption lidar

The applicability of the DIAL technique for total flux measurements of industrial
emissions has been demonstrated. Comparisons with in-situ point monitors have been
performed. Atomic mercury measurements have been performed in geothermic and
mineralized areas in addition to industrial sites.
The total flux of sulphur dioxide from Italian volcanoes has been measured by
simulaneous DOAS and DIAL measurements. (Less)
