Mikroplastik im Rhein

Greenpeace hat den Rhein mehrmals auf primäre Mikroplastikpartikel mit dem Schwerpunkt Microbeads untersucht und entsprechende Berichte zu den Ergebnissen veröffentlicht. Bei einer ersten Untersuchung im Jahr 2019 wurden 22 Proben zwischen Duisburg und Basel genommen und bis zu 7,2 Partikel pro Kubikmeter bei Köln-Stammheim gefunden. Ein Jahr später war Greenpeace für Untersuchungen wieder auf dem Rhein, dieses Mal zwischen Duisburg und Monheim. Während der Schiffstour wurden 44 Proben genommen, wobei die höchste Konzentration an Mikroplastikpartikeln bei 3,3 Partikeln pro Kubikmeter (Höhe Dormagen) lag. Eine Besonderheit stellten stündliche Probenahmen über 24-Stunden dar, die Greenpeace jeweils stromaufwärts und stromabwärts am Chempark Dormagen und am Chempark Krefeld-Uerdingen durchführte. Die Ergebnisse bestätigten, dass kontinuierlich Mikroplastikpartikel den Rhein stromabwärts gelangen. Die Mikroplastik-Konzentration war nachts niedriger als tagsüber. Darüber hinaus hat Greenpeace Mikroplastikpartikel in Sedimentproben vom Flussufer nachgewiesen. Greenpeace hat im Jahr 2021 weitere Untersuchungen durchgeführt. Die höchste Konzentration an Mikroplastikpartikeln lag bei 1,1 Partikeln pro Kubikmeter in einer Probe, die bei Dormagen entnommen wurde. Letztlich konnte Greenpeace in allen Wasserproben, die während der Schiffstouren genommen wurde, primäres Mikroplastik nachweisen.  Die Greenpeace-Expert:innen Manfred Santen und Daniela von Schaper haben das Projekt im Jahr 2020 geleitet.

Spatial distribution of aerosol and meteorological parameters measured during flight SourceFFR_ALADINA_20241017_15 with the UAS ALADINA near Frankfurt airport in October 2024

Exposure to ultrafine aerosol particles (UFPs) can cause adverse effects on human health, local environment and climate. Air traffic is associated with the emission of high numbers of UFPs, which results in increased UFP number concentrations close to airports. So far, the spatial distribution and variability of UFPs is poorly understood in the atmospheric boundary layer. The uncrewed aerial system (UAS) ALADINA (Application of Lightweight Aircraft for Detecting In-situ Aerosols, e.g. Altstädter et al., 2015) was operated close to the largest airport in Germany at Frankfurt airport (FRA) between 11 and 19 October 2024. The dataset provides airborne in-situ observations of the spatial distribution of aerosol particle number concentration with different sizes and meteorological parameters of temperature, humidity, wind, surface temperature and short-wave irradiance, as well as accurate position and orientation of ALADINA. Data are available from 26 measurement flights, comprising a number of 122 vertical profiles between ground and a maximum altitude of 750 m above mean sea level (ASL) and about 70 horizontal legs at different but constant altitude, e.g. in 100 m altitude intervals. Details about the ALADINA measurements will be provided in a publication (Harm-Altstädter et al., in prep.) soon.

REIN-project: Air quality data from gas and particle sensors at the river Rhine in Koblenz, Germany

This dataset provides data from various air quality sensors at a floating platform of the Federal Institute of Hydrology at the river bank of the Rhine in Koblenz, Germany. The data was collected as part of the mFUND project "REIN" which investigated the suitability of low-cost sensors for the determination of ship emissions with high spatial and temporal resolution. Measurement data involves various pollutants, including nitrogen oxides (NO, NO2), carbon dioxde (CO2) and particulate matter (particle number concentration, mass concentration, size distribution, ultrafine particles, black carbon concentration). Averaged data is provided at 1 minute and 1 hour temporal resolution and covers both low-cost and standard instruments. The dataset is related to the publication "Applicability of compact low- and mid-cost sensors to monitor air pollutant emissions from in-land ships".

Meteorological Observation and Assimilation of the Atmosphere on Long term (Dead Sea, Israel)

Since 2006, the Institute for Meteorology and Climate Research (IMK-TRO) is involved in intensive field measurements at the Dead Sea. Long term measurements of meteorological parameters, particle concentrations and ozone mixing ratios were initiated - accompanied by short term activities like vertical profiling and determination of radiation and the surface energy balance. Objective and Results: The objective is to study the mesoscale wind systems and their role in the distribution of pollutants near the Dead Sea. Preliminary data evaluation shows that a complexe superposition of various wind systems is abundant. The existence of the widespread lake plays a mayor role in the development of atmospheric layering during the course of the day. However, synoptic influence can disturb the regional system. Since September 2006 an permanent meteorological station is working at Massada National Monument approx. at elevation sea level. Measurements of the actual week are shown here . The whole data set is available on request.

Integriertes und an Raum-Zeit-Messungsskalen angepasstes Global Random Walk - Modell für reaktiven Transport im Grundwasser

Zur Lösung von Fluss- und reaktiven Transportgleichungen in heterogenen Grundwassersystemen werden neue Global Random Walk (GRW) Algorithmen entwickelt und implementiert, die stabil und frei von numerischer Diffusion sind. Um das Auftreten von Interpolationsfehlern zu vermeiden, wird ein integriertes GRW-Lösungsverfahren entwickelt, das Geschwindigkeiten und Konzentrationen auf dem selben regulären Gitter berechnet. Wir nutzen grobkörnige (engl. Coarse grained) (CG) Mittelwerte in Raum und Zeit über die Trajektorien der berechneten Partikel, die die Konzentrationen der reaktiven chemischen Spezies in den GRWSimulationen beschreiben. Diese werden genutzt, um eine kontinuierliche Beschreibung der Transportprozesse zu erhalten. Nachdem die Mittelungsprozedur die Variation der simulierten Konzentrationen reduziert, genügt eine relativ kleine Anzahl von Monte Carlo - Simulationen, um die statistischen Kennzahlen zu gewinnen, und gleichzeitig der Auswirkung der Raum-Zeit-Skalen der hydrologischen Beobachtungen Rechnung zu tragen. Des weiteren können lokale Bilanzgleichungen für die CG Raum-Zeit-Mittel genutzt werden, um die hochskalierten Diffusionskoeffizienten und Reaktionsterme zu berechnen.
