Use of the ceilometer data to explainig changes in pollutants concetration gradient in the air during the day
Komínková, Kateřina ; Holoubek, Ivan
For the interpretation of air pollutants concentrations, the one of the key parameter is the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) evolution during a day and night. The ABL is a broad concept that includes different states of airflow dynamics in the part of troposphere closest to the Earth's surface (0-2 km above the surface), which has an effect in this area. A lot of air flow changes occur in the ABL during the day. For the measurement of substances concentrations in the air the development of mixing layer (ML) in the light part of the day is very important. A lot of ground remote sensing methods was developed for determination of ABL height during the day, one of them which can be very simply operated is to use data from ceilometer. However, the obtained outputs cannot be directly interpreted. In addition, in the case of the terrain measurements a lot of cases when ABL height values cannot be determined because the ceilometer measurement is disturbed can occur.\n\n
