摘要

We compare a full-year (2006) record of surface air NO2 concentrationsmeasured in Israeli cities to coinciding retrievals of tropospheric NO2columns from satellite sensors (SCIAMACHY aboard ENVISAT and OMI aboardAura). This provides a large statistical data set for validation of NO2satellite measurements in urban air, where validation is difficult yetcrucial for using these measurements to infer NOx emissions byinverse modeling. Assuming that NO2 is well-mixed throughout the boundarylayer (BL), and using observed average seasonal boundary layer heights,near-surface NO2 concentrations are converted into BL NO2 columns. Theagreement between OMI and (13:45) BL NO2 columns (slope=0.93, n=542),and the comparable results at 10:00 h for SCIAMACHY, allow a validation ofthe seasonal, weekly, and diurnal cycles in satellite-derived NO2. OMI andBL NO2 columns show consistent seasonal cycles (winter NO21.6–2.7× higher than summer). BL and coinciding OMI columns both showa strong weekly cycle with 45–50% smaller NO2 columns on Saturdayrelative to the weekday mean, reflecting the reduced weekend activity, andvalidating the weekly cycle observed from space. The diurnal differencebetween SCIAMACHY (10:00) and OMI (13:45) NO2 is maximum in summer whenSCIAMACHY is up to 40% higher than OMI, and minimum in winter when OMIslightly exceeds SCIAMACHY. A similar seasonal variation in the diurnaldifference is found in the source region of Cairo. The surface measurementsin Israel cities confirm this seasonal variation in the diurnal cycle. Usingsimulations from a global 3-D chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem), we showthat this seasonal cycle can be explained by a much stronger photochemicalloss of NO2 in summer than in winter.
