During three measurement campaigns on the Baltic and North Seas, atmospheric dissolved methane was determined with an automated gas chromatographic system. Area‐weighted mean saturation values in sea surface waters were 113 ± 5% 395 82% (Baltic Sea, February July 1992) 126 8% (south central September 1992). On bases of our data a compilation literature global oceanic emissions reassessed by introducing concept regional transfer coefficients. Our estimates computed two different air‐sea...
We determined atmospheric and dissolved nitrous oxide (N 2 O) in the surface waters of central North Sea, German Bight, Gironde estuary. The mean saturations were 104 ± 1% (central September 1991), 101 2% (German 99 Bight 1992), 132% (Gironde estuary, November 1991). To evaluate contribution coastal areas estuaries to oceanic emissions we assembled a compilation literature data. conclude that regions (with exception with upwelling phenomena) are only slightly higher than open ocean. However,...

Abstract. Spectral measurements of the aerosol optical depth (AOD) and Ångström coefficient were conducted at Thessaloniki, Greece (40.5° N, 22.9° E) between January 1997 December 2005 with a Brewer MKIII double-monochromator spectroradiometer. The dataset was compared collocated second spectroradiometer (Brewer MKII) CIMEL sun-photometer, showing correlations 0.93 0.98, respectively.

Abstract. The relationships between aerosol optical depth (AOD), cloud cover (CC), and top pressure (CTP) over three major urban clusters in China are studied under different sea level (SLP) water vapor (WV) regimes using a decade (2003–2013) of MODIS satellite-retrieved data. Over all clusters, for SLP regimes, CC is found to increase with AOD, thus pointing out that the dependence on AOD cannot be explained by synoptic covariation, as approximated SLP, alone. WV have stronger impact than...
Museums play a vital role in preserving cultural heritage and for this reason, they require strict indoor environmental controls. Balancing quality with reduced energy consumption poses significant challenges. Over the course of year (2023), microclimate conditions, atmospheric pollutant concentrations (O3, TVOC, CO, CO2, particulate matter), use were monitored at Archaeological Museum Kavala. Maximum daily fluctuations relative humidity 15% summertime, while air temperature variations...

During the last 5 years, information on regional tropospheric ozone levels over eastern Mediterranean has become available but was confined to measurements at ground level. Here is expanded with two more rural level sites spanning 8° latitude, ozonesonde ascents, lidar observations, ship cruises, and aircraft flights. wintertime monthly values are 10–20 ppbv higher than other European sites, while during summertime comparable. This results in background area that above Union (EU) 32 ppb/24...

Abstract Time series of meteorological parameters at ten Greek airports since 1955 indicated the level climate change in Eastern Mediterranean area. Using this data, take-off performance was analysed for DHC-8-400—a typical short range turboprop airliner, and A320, a medium scale turbofan airliner. For with longer runways, steady but unimportant increase distances found. shorter results indicate reduction available payload. At most extreme case, show that an Airbus operating from the,...
Abstract Climate change is increasing global-mean tropospheric temperatures, but the localised trends are uneven, including cooling lower stratosphere and lifting tropopause. The wind speeds also being modified, both at surface aloft. A further effect, additional to temperature alone, of fluctuations severity extreme weather. These impacting air transport, this will continue. effects known include increased take-off distances where excess runway lengths exist reduced payloads they do not,...
