A method for the direct determination of elemental content in each of aerosol particles by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission (ICP-AES) or mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) is described. This method is based upon the introduction of diluted aerosol into an ICP and the measurement of either the flash emission intensities of an atomic spectral line or ion intensities. A pulse-height analyzer is used for the measurement of the distribution of the elemental content. In order to calibrate the measuring system, monodisperse aerosols are used. The potentials of the method are shown by demonstrating the copper emission signals from the aerosols generated at a small electric switch, a study of the relation between the decreasing rate of particle number density and particle size, and measurements of calcium contents in the individual biological cells.

위성 탑재 라이다 시스템이 관측하는 후방산란 신호는 대기 에어러솔의 3차원 공간적인 분포 특성 및 시간적인 변화를 탐지할 수 있게 한다. 본 연구에서는 Cloud-Aerosol LIDAR and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation(CALIPSO) 위성에 탑재된 Cloud-Aerosol LIDAR with Orthogonal Polarization(CALIOP) 라이다 관측자료를 이용하여 2012년 한 해 동안의 동북아시아 지역(북위 20도 - 50도, 동경 110 도 - 140 도)의 대기 에어로졸의 시공간 분포를 분석하였다. 입자 소산계수와 편광소멸도의 통계 분석으로부터 각 고도별 에어러솔 입자의 광학 특성정보를 분석하였고, 각 계절별 에어러솔 광학 특성값의 연직분포정보를 정량화할 수 있었다. 또한, 편광소멸도 자료는 연중 0.5 이상의 큰 값을 보이고 있어 지역 대기에는 비구형성 입자에 의한 영향이 많이 받고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구는 지역적 규모의 3차원 에어러솔 분포 정보에 대한 기초연구로서, 향후 추가 자료 조사를 통하여 보다 다양한 이벤트성 사례와 에어러솔 기후학적 정보를 생산할 것이다.

To know the properties of single aerosol particle is an essential prerequisite for understanding its chemical reactions in the atmosphere. Single particle analysis has the advantage of providing a great amount of information that cannot otherwise be obtained using methods of bulk analysis. And single particle analysis needs the short sampling time and the small sampling mass for analysis. This allows for a better determination of the temporal variation of the component concentrations in aerosol particles. (omitted)

Particle Induce X-Ray Emission (PIXE) analysis is one of the most useful methods which can determine the elemental concentration of aerosol particles in nano-gram range. The main purpose of this paper is to establish the measurement system and the procedure of PIXE analysis. The standard samples were prepared to calibrate the PIXE analysis by three different techniques. The linear relationships between the peak counts from PIXE spectra and the mass density from RBS spectra were obtained for each standardized element under the applied measurment geometry and conditions. The sensitivity curves for PIXE analysis were determined from these relationships.

It is very important to measure atmospheric particles and evaluate the characteristics of them since aerosol can influence atmospheric environment, climate, and health. Satellite, aircraft, radio sonde are usually used to measure the vertical distribution of particle properties, temperature, humidity, and pressure. Although the method of using an aircraft is favorable to collect the horizontal distribution of the particles, but unadaptable to measure the vertical distribution of the particles. However, all-in-one balloon particle sampler system can collect particles depending on each altitude controling the balloon by winch. In this research, we performed the air sampling on the TEM grids using house made light weight impactor at the altitude of 300m and 900m. The collected particles were analyzed using TEM/EDS.

이중 편광 라이다로 계측된 에어로솔과 구름의 편광소멸도를 분석하였다. 구름과 먼지, 그리고 구형 에어로솔에 대한 1064 nm와 532 nm의 파장별 후방산란비의 비(RDR)를 각각 비교하였다. 구형 에어로솔의 경우 RDR 값은 1.5~6, 먼지는 0.98~4, 그리고 구름의 경우에는 0.7~1.77의 값을 나타내었다. 먼지의 수직분포와 상대습도를 비교하였다. 평균적으로 30~60%의 상대습도가 먼지층에 분포하였다. 하지만 70%이상의 값도 빈번히 계측되었으고, 이의 경우 먼지에 대한 RDR 값은 2~4 정도로 증가하였다.

In order to understand the relative importance of various pathways leading to the production and transformation of aerosols under different atmospheric conditions, the behavior of atmospheric aerosols have been investigated using a high volume tape sample in Seoul for a week period during August 1990. The concentrations of anion $(SO^{2-}_4, NO^-_3, CI^-)$ and cation $(Ca^{2+}, Na^+, NH^+_4)$ species of aerosol samples were analyzed to identify the ionic composition of aerosols and to estimate their relative contributions to aerosol formation. The concentrations of aerosol species were calculated by a multiple regression model. The results of our calculations indicate the existence of various chemical species such as $(NH_4)_2SO_4, Na_2SO_4, CaSO_4, NH_4NO_3, NaNO_3, Ca(NO_3)_2, NH_4Cl$, and NaCl salts. According to our calculations, the most dominant species of aerosol was $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ with the mean concentration of 23.3 $/mu g/m^3$ (66.9%). The proportion of different componts with aerosol (e.g., $NH_4NO_3$ and $NH_4Cl$) was strongly affected by temperature, relative humidity, and partial presure of gases.

A steam generator tube rupture accompanying a core damage may cause the fission product to be released to environment bypassing the containment. In such an accident, the steam generator is the major path of the radioactive aerosol release. AEOLUS facility, the scaled-down model of Korean type steam generator, was built to examine the aerosol removal in the steam generator during the steam generator tube rupture accident. Integral and separate effect tests were performed with the facility for the dry and flooded conditions, and the decontamination factors were presented for different tube configurations and submergences. The dry test results were compared with the existing test results and with the analyses to investigate the aerosol retention physics by the tube bundle, with respect to the particle size and the bundle geometry. In the flooded tests, the effect of submergence were shown and the retention in the jet injection region were presented with respect to the Stokes number. The test results are planned to be used to constitute the aerosol retention model, specifically applicable for the analysis of the steam generator tube rupture accident in Korean nuclear power plants to evaluate realistic fission product behavior.

The vertical profiles and optical properties of Asian dust are investigated using ground-based measurements from 1998 to 2002. Vertical profiles of aerosol extinction coefficient are evaluated using MPL (Micro Pulse Lidar) data. Optical parameters such as aerosol optical thickness ($\tau$), ${\AA}ngstr\ddot{o}m$ exponent ($\alpha$), single scattering albedo ($\omega$), refractive index, and volume size distribution are analyzed with sun/sky radiometer data for the same period. We can separate aerosol vertical profiles into three categories. First category named as 'Asian dust case', which aerosol extinction coefficient is larger than $0.15km^{-1}$ and dust layer exists from surface up to 3-4km. Second category named as 'Elevated aerosol case', which aerosol layer exists between 2 and 6km with 1-2.5km thickness, and extinction coefficient is smaller than $0.15km^{-1}$. Third category named as 'Clear sky case', which aerosol extinction coefficient appears smaller than $0.15km^{-1}$. and shows that diurnal variation of background aerosol in urban area. While optical parameters for first category indicate that $\tau$ and $\alpha$ are $0.63{\pm}0.14$, $0.48{\pm}0.19$, respectively. Also, aerosol volume concentration is increased for range of 1 and $4{\mu}m$, in coarse mode. Optical parameters for second category can be separated into two different types. Optical properties of first type are very close to Asian dust cases. Also, dust reports of source region and backward trajectory analyses assure that these type is much related with Asian dust event. However, optical properties of the other type are similar to those of urban aerosol. For clear sky case, $\tau$ is relatively smaller and $\alpha$ is larger compare with other cases. Each case shows distinct characteristics in aerosol optical parameters.
