重要研究與突破
富貴角大氣氣膠吸濕性質及雲凝結核活性的季節變異及影響因子(Cheung et al., Atmos. Chem. Phys., 20, 5911–5922, 2020) 本研究在富貴角研究站調查大氣氣膠(PM2.5)的化學組成、吸濕特性、以及雲凝結核活性的季節變化。研究結果發現:在冬季季風影響期間,氣膠組成中含有較高濃度的無機鹽類(海鹽、硫酸鹽),因而具有較高的吸濕性,並增加了雲凝結核的活性;反之,在夏季期間,富貴角主要接受源自台灣都市的空氣污染,有機氣膠含量較高,雲凝結核的活性較低。此項結果顯示源自中國大陸的氣膠具有較高的親水性,因而可能經由與雲的交互作用而對區域氣候有較大的影響。本研究並發現夏季期間在富貴角常可觀測到”新微粒生成”,顯示氣體轉化成微粒的物理化學反應在台灣北部濱海地區十分旺盛,對區域氣膠的濃度和物理化學性質都可能有重要的影響。
台北都市地區新粒子生成對超細與亞微米粒子特徵季節變化影響 (Cheung et al., Atmos Chem. Phys., 16, 1317-1330, 2016) 本研究調查台灣北部都市的超細(UFPs)與亞微(PM1)粒子的微物理和化學組成在新粒生成事件影響下的季節變化。觀測結果顯示藉由光化學反應產生的可凝結有機分子可以加強大氣中氣態硫酸的核化過程並產生大量的新粒子。過往的研究結果指出新粒子生成主要在較乾淨的大氣環境中發生,但本研究結果提出新的數據頻繁的新粒子生成事件也可在污染的都市環境中出現。
