Abstract. Speciated monoterpene measurements in rainforest air are scarce, but they are
essential for understanding the contribution of these compounds to the
overall reactivity of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions towards the
main atmospheric oxidants, such as hydroxyl radicals (OH), ozone (O 3) and
nitrate radicals ( NO3 ). In this study, we present the chemical speciation
of gas-phase monoterpenes measured in the tropical rainforest at the Amazon
Tall Tower Observatory (ATTO, Amazonas, Brazil). Samples of VOCs were
collected by two automated sampling systems positioned on a tower at 12 and
24 m height and analysed using gas chromatography–flame ionization detection. The samples were collected in October 2015, representing the dry
season, and compared with previous wet and dry season studies at the site. In
addition, vertical profile measurements (at 12 and 24 m) of total monoterpene
mixing ratios were made using proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry. The results showed a distinctly different chemical speciation
between day and night. For instance, α -pinene was more abundant
during the day, whereas limonene was more abundant at night. Reactivity
calculations showed that higher abundance does not generally imply higher
reactivity. Furthermore, inter- and intra-annual results demonstrate similar
chemodiversity during the dry seasons analysed. Simulations with a canopy
exchange modelling system show simulated monoterpene mixing ratios that
compare relatively well with the observed mixing ratios but also indicate
the necessity of more experiments to enhance our understanding of in-canopy
sinks of these compounds.
