The Amazon forestThe Amazon forest
• Greatest tropical forest in extension (~6 millions km2)
• Biosphere-atmosphere interaction: fluxes of momentum, heat, water vapor, aerosol particles and trace gases
• Natural source of biogenic particles and trace gases like VOC, CO2, H2O etc
• Intense convective activity: transport over large distances, in a way that the forest acts as a natural global source

Biogenic aerosols in Biogenic aerosols in Amazonia Amazonia • Mass: 10-15 g/m3, Number: 300-500 cm-3
• 70% of the mass on the coarse mode• Organic matter = 60-70% FPM and 70-85% of CPM

Delay time [min]
The only clue:
• 7 hour delay
• suggests the influence of isoprene over nucleation and/or growth of particles

• Burst of particles with Dp > 0,5 m
• Emission?
• In-canopy CCN activation?
• CO2 emission: biological activity
• u* peak: indicates turbulent activity at night
• Increased scattering

SummarySummary
• Net fine particle flux close to zero• Traces of in-canopy particle emissions
were observed, specially at night → the biophysical mechanisms controlling those emissions remain unknown
• No nucleation events • Not significant relationships between VOC
and particle fluxes• Results can not be extrapolated, because
of the heterogeneity of the Amazon region
![Page 16: Measurement of aerosol and VOC turbulent fluxes and in-canopy particle characterization at a pristine forest in Amazonia Luciana Rizzo](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56649ed05503460f94bddd26/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Remaining questions Remaining questions 1. Net fine particle flux close to zero (Amazonia
and Finland)• Equilibrium between biosphere-atmosphere?• Is this a matter of improving measurement
techniques?• Does that also apply for the coarse particle mode?
Range of particle flux measurements Develop new
techniques to measure size segregated fluxes and coarse mode fluxes

2. No nucleation events observed in the pristine Amazon forest
– What are the limiting factors?– What is the role of VOC on particle growth?– What is the influence of SOA over the physical
properties of aerosol population?
