• Abstract

  A study is proposed to evaluate the impact of emissions from biomass burning in central Brazil and Amazonia in the composition of the atmosphere of the Southeast region of Brazil, in particular the Vale do Paraíba, São Paulo. This proposal envisages implementing an atmospheric chemical experiment in this region, with measurements at surface level of the concentrations of carbon monoxide (…

• Abstract

  The Inpe Ozone Laboratory has dedicated itself to the launching of balloons with ozone probes since 1978 (Logan and Kirchhoff, 1996; Kirchhoff et al., 1991; Oltmans et al., 2001; Thompson et al.,2003) from Natal, Rio Grande do Norte (RN), and more recently from Maxaranguape (RN). We now have an opportunity to extend these measurements to include the observation of aerosols in relation to …

• Abstract

  Through the aerial measurements of trace gases from biomass burning and from a numerical model developed in a doctoral thesis, we verified the existence of high concentrations of CO2 in regions where there is no burning (brought in by transport). In this work we aim to measure these concentrations in situ. We will install monitoring stations for trace gases from biomass burning in the cit…
