Abstract

Using the flux gradient approach dry deposition of SO2, NOx and O3 to a 28 m tall spruce stand in the catchment “Grosse Ohe” in the National Park “Bayerischer Wald” is being studied. This catchment has a size of 19.1 km2 and is situated about 200 km northeast of Munich. The elevation reaches from 770 m to 1452 m above sea level. The catchment was established in 1978 as a forest hydrological reference basin now serving as an experimental watershed for water quality studies too.

Before the main deposition began in July 1986, a pre-experiment was performed in the “Ebersberger Forst” near Munich to test the performance of the instrumentation. For a day of this period the turbulent diffusivities are calculated showing considerable discrepances between aerodynamic and energy balance approach. At the new site, for which first concentration profiles of SO2 and NOx are reported, a taller measuring tower than at the test site is operated providing meteorological and chemical measurements up to 51 m height.
