Report 3  BBA dispersion forecast using MOBBE web instrument

Pollution caused by biomass burn, combined with urban pollution from human activities, is the main source of primary aerosols, which have a significant impact on the human health and on climate, at local, regional and global level. 40 % of global black carbon emissions are caused by biomass burn. Quantification and prediction of the effects of biomass burn and their impact on air quality, climate and meteorology, at local, regional and global level, represents a major challenge. In this project, the properties of biomass burn aerosols, over Romania, were studied, using improved inversion logarithms. The results (a new parameterization of physical processes of biomass burn aerosols, sources and properties) were implemented in the FLEXPART dispersion model, based on the Lagrange mechanism.

The following activities were implemented within the last stage of the project:

  • Characterization of optical and microphysics properties of biomass burn aerosols, transported over Romania and in the neighboring countries.
  • Investigation of chemical composition and the mixed state of biomass burn aerosol caused by human activities in the boundary layer.
  • Implementation of version 9.1 of FLEXPART model in the RADO data center and validation.
  • Modeling the dispersion of local and transported biomass burn aerosol; validation with measured data.
  • Development and implementation of a web utility for daily display of black carbon concentrations forecasted for three levels (at the ground, in the boundary layer, in the free troposphere).
  • Presentation and publication of results.
  • Organization of a workshop with participation of stakeholders.

The project results were presented within a larger international context, with participants from the academic environment (institutes and universities), business (small enterprises with direct interest in this field) and representatives of Romanian research authorities.
