| Abstract: | Aerosol particles (PM2.5) were collected during the day (n=6) and nighttime (n=9) from a tropical pasture site in Rondônia, Brazil during an intensive biomass burning period (16-26 September, 2002). Higher normalized (by K+, levoglucosan, or apparent elemental carbon, ECa) mass concentrations of SO4^[2-] and CH3SO3- in daytime suggest their photochemical production, while the opposite trend for NO3- suggests its transfer to the aerosol phase at lower temperatures and higher humidities, as well as possibly production through hydrolysis of N2O5 on aqueous aerosol particles. About 4.2-7.5% of OC (5-13% of water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC)) could be characterized at the molecular level using GC-MS and GC-FID. Among the detected organic compound classes, the relative abundances of anhydrosugars and aromatics were higher in night samples, but sugars/sugar alcohols, diacids, oxoacids and α-dicarbonyls were more abundant in day samples. Consecutive day and night samples showed that δ13C values of total carbon (TC) were lower in daytime samples, which can be interpreted as resulting from higher contributions of refractory TC depleted in 13C due to predominantly flaming combustion. The δ15N values of total nitrogen (TN) ranged from +23.5‰ to +25.7‰, however, there was no trend in day and night samples. Higher values of δ13C and δ15N for biomass burning particles than those of unburned vegetation reflect positive isotopic enrichment either during the formation of particles or after the emission of particles in the atmosphere. |
