英文摘要 | Formation pathways and sources of atmosphere nitrate (NO3-) have attracted much attention as NO3- had detrimental effects on Earth's ecosystem and climate change. Here, we measured nitrogen (delta N-15-NO3-) and oxygen (delta O-18-NO3- and Delta O-17-NO3-) isotope compositions in nitrate aerosols at the Qomolangma station (QOMS) over the Himalayan-Tibetan Plateau (HTP) to quantify the formation mechanisms and emission sources of nitrate at the background site. At QOMS, the enhanced NO3- concentrations were observed in the springtime. The average delta N-15-NO3-, delta O-18-NO3-, and Delta O-17-NO3- values were 0.4 +/- 4.9, 64.7 +/- 11.5 and 27.6 +/- 6.9 parts per thousand, respectively. Seasonal variations of isotope ratios at QOMS can be explained by the different emissions and formation pathways to nitrate. The average fractions of NO2 + OH and N2O5 + H2O to nitrate production were estimated to be 43 and 52%, respectively, when the NO3 + hydrocarbon (HC)/dimethyl sulfide (DMS) (NO3 + HC/DMS) pathway was assumed to be 5%. Using stable isotope analysis in the R (SIAR) model, the relative contributions of biomass burning (BB), biogenic soil emission, traffic, and coal combustion to nitrate were estimated to be 28, 25, 24, and 23%, respectively, on yearly basis. By FLEXible PARTicle (FLEXPART) dispersion model, we highlighted that NOx from BB emission over South Asia that had undergone N2O5 + H2O processes enhanced the nitrate concentrations in the springtime over the HTP region. |
