NMR Aerosolomics as a Tool to Distinguish Various Types of Aerosols.
Horník, Štěpán ; Schwarz, Jaroslav ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Sýkora, Jan
Water-soluble organic compounds represent up to 80% of all organic compounds present in atmospheric aerosols. Unlike composition of inorganic compounds or volatile organic compounds, which seems to be well explored, the knowledge about WSOC composition is still rather limited. The most frequently used method for WSOC analysis is GC-MS, which is a very sensitive technique. However, the analysis of polar compounds via GC-MS requires derivatization and the quantification is extremely time consuming. The second widely used technique is ion chromatography (IC). Nowadays, IC is routinely used for analysis of specific groups of organic compounds such as carboxylic acids, amines or carbohydrates. On the other hand, there is NMR spectroscopy as a fully quantitative but rather insensitive method. NMR spectroscopy was for the purpose of aerosol chemistry employed only recently as this technique has undergone rapid development and sensitivity gain of late. So far, the use of NMR spectroscopy is mainly restricted to socalled Functional Group Analysis, of which main interest lies elsewhere than in identification of individual compounds.

To improve the air quality the underlying causalities must be well understood,particularly when it comes to aspects such as PM concentration, sources and their origin. The aim of this work was to determine air pollution origin at NAOK based on atmospheric aerosol (AA) data of different time resolution measured during intensive summer campaing.

Identification of Sources of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Central Europe.
Lhotka, Radek ; Pokorná, Petra ; Zíková, Naděžda
This study evaluates the trends and sources of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) monitored at National atmospheric observatory Košetice (NAOK), a rural background site. In total, 14 PAH concentrations in particulate matter (PM10) between 2006 and 2016 were evaluated. The highest concentrations of all PAH were measured at the beginning of the study period, in 2006. The positive matrix factorization (EPA PMF 5.0) was used to determine the sources of PAH at NAOK, with three factors resolved. The probable origin areas of PMF factors were identified by Conditional Bivariate Probability Function method (CBPF) and Potential Source Contribution Function method (PSCF) methods. NAOK is affected by local sources of PAH, as well as by regional and long-range transport.

ACTRIS IMP – ÚČAST ČESKÉ REPUBLIKY V NÁRODNÍCH VÝZKUMNÝCH INFRASTRUKTURÁCH A TÉMATICKÝCH CENTRECH ACTRIS
Ondráček, Jakub ; Váňa, M. ; Klánová, J. ; Holoubek, Ivan ; Ždímal, V.
ACTRIS (The Aerosol, Clouds and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure) je panevropskou výzkumnou infrastrukturou, jejímž hlavním cílem je tvorba vysoce kvalitních dat a podávání informací o krátkodobých složkách atmosféry a o procesech vedoucích ke změnám těchto složek v přírodním a kontrolovaném laboratorním prostředí. ACTRIS je dlouhodobou aktivitou (již od roku 2012, viz. Obr. 1) více než 100 partnerských organizací po celé Evropě, jejichž cílem je integrace, harmonizace a distribuce vysoce kvalitních vědeckých výstupů poskytovaných nejlepšími pracovišti atmosférického výzkumu v (prozatím) 22 evropských zemích. ACTRIS je logickým pokračováním 15-tiletého rozvoje velkých výzkumných infrastruktur financovaného členskými státy a evropskou komisí (EC) prostřednictvím programu výzkumných infrastruktur (Research Infrastructure programme) zahrnujících např. Projekty EARLINET, EUSAAR, CREATE a CLOUDNET.

NMR Aerosolomics as a Tool to Distinguish Various Types of Aerosol Samples.
Horník, Štěpán ; Schwarz, Jaroslav ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Sýkora, Jan
In the recent study, the summer and winter aerosol samples were analyzed using NMR aerosolomics approach. The samples were collected in Prague-Suchdol during summer 2008 and winter 2009 in two different particle size fractions - PM2.5 and PM 10. Around 50 compounds were identified in each aerosol spectrum owing to the comprehensive library. The profile of 86 identified compounds, which were identified in the samples altogether, served as an input data for statistical analysis. Multivariate statistical analysis clearly discriminates the two groups studied. Furthermore, it is possible to determine the most significant compounds.

Air Pollution Origin Based on One-year PM2.5 and PM10 Measurement at Two Suburban Sites in Prague.
Pokorná, Petra ; Schwarz, Jaroslav ; Rychlík, Š. ; Škáchová, H. ; Smolík, Jiří ; Ždímal, Vladimír ; Vlček, O. ; Hůnová, I.
The objective of this study was to determine air pollution origin in Prague based on the chemical composition of 24h atmospheric aerosol (AA) samples collected in parallel for one-year at two suburban sites. Chemical analysis of PM2.5 and PM10 for elements by ICP-MS, for elemental and organic carbon by thermo-optical method and water-soluble inorganic ions by IC was performed. The AA in Prague air shed was well mixed and nine common PM10 sources of local, urban, regional and long range transport (LRT) origin were apportioned.
