Chemical characteristics of atmospheric aerosols in a rural site of northwestern Anatolia Yenisoy-Karakas, S; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal (1997-09-01) Aerosol samples were collected daily at a rural mountainous site of northwestern Anatolia during September 1993-April 1994. Concentrations of SO42-, NO3-, Cl-, NH4+, Na+, K+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ have been determined. Sulfate made up the 30% analyzed aerosol mass with a 2.14 mu gm(-3) average concentration. Measured concentrations were comparable with other rural area data except Ca2+ which was higher in our station with an average concentration of 1.12 mu gm(-3). Monthly concentrations of major ions fluctuate dep...
Chemical composition of atmospheric particles in the aegean region Munzur, Başak; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal; Department of Environmental Engineering (2008) Daily aerosol samples were collected at the Çandarlı which is located on Aegean coast of Turkey. A rural site was selected to monitor atmospheric pollution by long range transport. Sampling was performed in both summer and winter seasons, and in total 151 samples were obtained. Concentrations of elements in the samples were measured in order to identify sources and possible source locations of pollutants. Measured concentrations of trace elements at the Çandarlı station were compared with those measured at ...
Chemical composition of precipitation near an industrial area at Izmir Turkey Idrees F, Al-Momani; OYavuz, Ataman; Mohammad A, Anwari; TUNCEL, SEMRA; Cevdet, Köse; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal (1995-05-01) Wet and dry deposition samples were collected near an industrial area on the Aegean coast of Turkey. Concentrations of major ions (Cl-, SO4(2-), NO3-, H+, Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, and NH4+) were determined. The pH of the precipitation, calculated from the volume weighted H+ concentration, was found to be 5.6, indicating extensive neutralization of the acidity in the rain. Neutralization was found to be a local process. The main base responsible for the neutralization of acidity was NH3 from fertilizer used in t...
Chemical composition of atmospheric particles as a tool to identify sources affecting aerosol population in the Eastern Black sea atmosphere Balcılar, İlker; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal; Department of Environmental Engineering (2018) Daily size distributed particulate matter samples were collected at a rural station on Eastern Black Sea region between March 2011 and December 2013. Particulate matter samples were analyzed for trace elements by ICP-MS and ED-XRF and for black carbon by Aethalometer. Mean concentrations of trace elements in the fine fraction varied between 0.0011 ng m-3 for Tm and 1382.42 ng m-3 for SO42-, while mean concentrations in the coarse fraction varied between 0.0017 ng m-3 for Tm and 1441.5 ng m-3 for Si. The dom...
Chemical composition of Eastern Mediterranean aerosol and precipitation: Indications of long-range transport Almomani, Idrees; GÜLLÜ, GÜLEN; Ölmez, İlhan; ELER, ÜNAL; Ortel, E; Şirin, Gürol; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal (1997-01-01) Daily aerosol and wet-only precipitation samples were collected, between January 1992 and January 1994 at a permanent station established on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Collected aerosol and rain samples were analyzed for major ions and a host of trace elements using a combination of analytical techniques, including ion chromatography, atomic absorbtion spectrometry and instrumental neutron activation analysis. The results have demonstrated;hat concentrations of parameters studied are higher than cor...
