Sentinel-5P TROPOMI Surface Nitrogendioxide (NO2), Level 4 – Regional (Germany and neighboring countries)

The TROPOMI instrument onboard the Copernicus SENTINEL-5 Precursor satellite is a nadir-viewing, imaging spectrometer that provides global measurements of atmospheric properties and constituents on a daily basis. It is contributing to monitoring air quality and climate, providing critical information to services and decision makers. The instrument uses passive remote sensing techniques by measuring the top of atmosphere solar radiation reflected by and radiated from the earth and its atmosphere. The four spectrometers of TROPOMI cover the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), Near Infra-Red (NIR) and Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) domains of the electromagnetic spectrum. The operational trace gas products generated at DLR on behave ESA are: Ozone (O3), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Formaldehyde (HCHO), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Methane (CH4), together with clouds and aerosol properties. This product displays the Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) near surface concentration for Germany and neighboring countries as derived from the POLYPHEMUS/DLR air quality model. Surface NO2 is mainly generated by anthropogenic sources, e.g. transport and industry. POLYPHEMUS/DLR is a state-of-the-art air quality model taking into consideration - meteorological conditions, - photochemistry, - anthropogenic and natural (biogenic) emissions, - TROPOMI NO2 observations for data assimilation. This Level 4 air quality product (surface NO2 at 15:00 UTC) is based on innovative algorithms, processors, data assimilation schemes and operational processing and dissemination chain developed in the framework of the INPULS project. The DLR project INPULS develops (a) innovative retrieval algorithms and processors for the generation of value-added products from the atmospheric Copernicus missions Sentinel-5 Precursor, Sentinel-4, and Sentinel-5, (b) cloud-based (re)processing systems, (c) improved data discovery and access technologies as well as server-side analytics for the users, and (d) data visualization services.

Field based and laboratory data of sediment cores from the Lower Havel Inner Delta near Lake Gülpe, Brandenburg (Germany)

Sediment cores were recovered using a hand-held Cobra Pro (Atlas Copco) core drilling system with a 60 mm diameter open corer. One-meter segments were retrieved and assessed in the field for sedimentological features, including estimations of grain size, carbonate content, humus content, and redox features (AG Boden 2005, 2024). Colour descriptions were carried out using the Munsell Soil Color Chart. The exact positions of the drilling points were recorded using a differential GPS device (TOPCON HiPer II). The cores were photographed, documented and sampled at 5–10 cm intervals for subsequent laboratory analyses. Bulk samples from five selected cores (RK1, RK3, RK13, RK15, RK17) were freeze-dried, sieved (2 mm), and weighed. Total carbon (TC), total nitrogen (TN), and total sulfur (TS) contents were measured using a CNS analyzer (Vario EL cube, Elementar). Inorganic carbon (TIC) was determined using calcimeter measurements (Scheibler method, Eijkelkamp). Organic carbon (TOC) was calculated as TOC = TC − TIC. For the grain size analyses, sediment samples were first sieved to <2 mm and subsamples of 10 g were treated with 50 ml of 35% hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and gently heated to remove organic matter. Following this, 10 ml of 0.4 N sodium pyrophosphate solution (Na₄P₂O₇) was added to disperse the particles, and the suspension was subjected to ultrasonic treatment for 45 minutes. The sand fraction was analysed by dry sieving and classified into four size classes: coarse sand (2000–630 µm), medium sand (630–200 µm), fine sand (200–125 µm), and very fine sand (125–63 µm). Finer fractions were determined using X-ray granulometry (XRG) with a SediGraph III 5120 (Micromeritics). These included coarse silt (63–20 µm), medium silt (20–6.3 µm), fine silt (6.3–2.0 µm), coarse clay (2.0–0.6 µm), medium clay (0.6–0.2 µm), and fine clay (<0.2 µm).

Sentinel-5P TROPOMI – Ozone (O3), Level 3 – Global

Sequestration von Veterinärarzneimitteln in Böden - Teilprojekt A3: Veterinärarzneimittel in Böden: Grundlagenforschung zur Risikoanalyse

Seit kurzem werden ökologisch wirksame Konzentrationen von antibakteriellen Tierarzneimitteln auch im Boden nachgewiesen. Für eine umfassende Analyse des Risikos fehlen jedoch grundlegende Modellvorstellungen. Hierbei ist zu berücksichtigen, dass die Tierarzneimittel i.d.R. mit Wirtschaftsdüngern auf die Böden gelangen. Zwar gibt es Modellvorstellungen zum Umweltverhalten hydrophober Schadstoffe und zur Wirkung von Wirtschaftsdüngern auf die Bodenlebewelt, doch sind diese nur bedingt übertragbar auf die Dynamik der teilweise polaren Tierarzneimittel im Boden und ihre spezifischen Effekte auf Bodenorganismen. Auch die in der Literatur beschriebenen Effekte von zusätzlichen C-Quellen und Co-Solventien auf Bindung, Abbau und Transport sind aufgrund der komplexen Zusammensetzung von Wirtschaftsdüngern nicht direkt auf Tierarzneimittel übertragbar. Effekte der komplexen Wechselwirkungen von Wirtschaftsdüngern auf die Wirkung der Stoffe im Boden sind unseres Wissens überhaupt nicht untersucht. Übergeordnetes Ziel dieser Forschergruppe ist es daher, anhand mindestens zweier unterschiedlicher Zielstoffe (Sulfadiazin und Difloxacin) erstmals aufzuklären, wie unter dem Einfluss von Wirtschaftsdüngern die Wirkung dieser Stoffe im Boden an ihre Dynamik gekoppelt ist. Wir sehen hierbei mehrere offene Fragen in den Bereichen Dynamik (z.B. Abbau und Metabolisierung, Sequestration sowie skalenabhängige Umverteilung), Wirkung (z.B. auf Struktur und Funktion der Mikroorganismen sowie auf Resistenzbildung) und v.a. bezüglich der Mechanismen der raum-zeitlichen Kopplung von Dynamik und Wirkung der Problemstoffe im Boden (von ms bis Jahren und von der Mineraloberfläche bis zum Bodenprofil). Zur Beantwortung dieser Fragen erscheint es uns in der 1. Projektphase notwendig, vorwiegend anhand von Laborversuchen die relevanten Skalen und Prozesse zu identifizieren sowie die Raten zu quantifizieren, welche die Dynamik und Wirkung der Stoffe im Boden allein und unter dem Einfluss tierischer Exkremente steuern. In einer 2. Phase werden die Prozesse gekoppelt und ihre Relevanz in einem gemeinsamen Freilandversuch überprüft. Damit können wir die für das Umweltverhalten der Zielstoffe wesentlichen Steuergrößen und -mechanismen erstmals aufdecken und quantifizieren. Ziel des TP in Bonn ist die Aufklärung der Bindungsstärke und Verfügbarkeit von Tierarzneimitteln in zwei Referenzböden. Um die 'chemische Verfügbarkeit der Substanzen im Boden zu erfassen, wird eine sequentielle Extraktionsmethode für die Analyten entwickelt und auf eine Alterungszeitreihe der Tierantibiotika im Boden angewandt. Die Bindung der Stoffe an Bodenbestandteile (Mineralphasen, org. Substanz, Gülle-DOC) wird mittels batch-Sorptionsversuchen untersucht; dies wird wiederum an frisch kontaminierten und gealterten Proben durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse werden mit den anderen Projekten der Forschergruppe vernetzt, um auf die 'Bioverfügbarkeit von sorbierten Fraktionen der Tierarzneimittel rückzuschließen.
