报告了/sup 14/CO浓度的地面测量结果。在中纬度地区,数据显示出明确的季节变化,冬季最大值为25 +-2分子cm/sup-3/,夏季最大值为11 +-1分子cm/sup-3/。测量结果还表明,纬度变化很大,热带地区的浓度较低。使用2-D时间依赖模型解释数据。为了平衡/sup 14/CO和/sup 12/CO的来源,对流层OH的平均浓度需要达到(6.5/sup +3//sub -/2)x 10/sup 5/ molecule cm/sup-3/。此外,从生物过程,包括非甲烷烃的氧化的/sup 12/CO生产率被发现是1250 × 10/sup 12/ g CO yr/sup-1/。
Ground-based measurements of the concentration of /sup 14/CO are reported. The data exhibit a well-defined seasonal variation at mid-latitudes with a maximum of 25 +- 2 molecule cm/sup -3/ during winter and a minium of 11 +- 1 molecule cm/sup -3/ during summer. The measurements also indicate a strong latitudinal variation, with the lower concentrations occurring in the tropics. The data are interpreted using a 2-D time-dependent model. To balance the sources of both /sup 14/CO and /sup 12/CO, an average tropospheric OH concentration of (6.5/sup +3//sub -/2) x 10/sup 5/ molecule cm/sup -3/ is required. In addition, the /sup 12/CO production rate from biological processes including the oxidation of nonmethane hydrocarbons is found to be 1250 x 10/sup 12/ g CO yr/sup -1/.
