CHITA Belogorsk KHABAROVSK VLADIVOSTOK 3.7 Aerosols Concentration and microphysical and chemical properties of aerosol have been measured in most of the TROICA experiments. A big archive of data on aerosol concentration, size distribution and chemical composition was collected. Up-to-now the complete analysis of these data has not been finished yet. Some results were published by Andronova et al. (2003). Distribution of the aerosol mass concentration over the route of the TROICA campaigns is shown in Figure 7. Aerosol size distribution for unpolluted region is presented in Figure 8. Aerosol mass was compared between rural and industrial regions. In the plumes of industrial zones and cities, the mean aerosol mass concentrations were 100-120 μg/m 3 . A pronounces weekly cycle was observed in these regions as well. For comparison, the rural aerosol mass concentrations varied between 10 and 20 μg/m 3 . In the plumes of forest fires observed by the TROICA expeditions, maximum identified aerosol mass concentrations exceeded 800 μg/m 3 .
Train-Based Platform for Observations of the Atmosphere Composition (TROICA Project) 187 The soot aerosol concentration was measured using atmospheric aerosol sampling with quartz fiber filters and subsequent measurements of the light absorption by the aerosol samples (Kopeikin, 2007 and Kopeikin, 2008). Along the Murmansk-Kislovodsk transect, the mean level of atmospheric pollution by soot is about 1-2 μg/m 3 . However, the atmospheric pollution by soot is higher by an order of magnitude at the parts of the railroad where diesel locomotives are used. Large-scale (extended over 500-1000 km) non-uniformities in the soot aerosol distribution in the atmospheric boundary layer are seen during winter. In the spring of 1997, large-scale polluted zones extending over about 1000 km resulted from grass fires. In the winter-spring period, the atmospheric soot concentration over South Siberia and Far East were twice as high as that over European Russia. In summer, the atmosphere is weakly polluted by soot nearly along the entire railroad. More detailed information on aerosol physical and chemical properties have been obtained by groups of specialists leaded by M.Kulmala and V.-M. Kerminen (Kuokka et. al., 2007; Vartiainen et al., 2007). During the TROICA-9 expedition the equipment for continuous monitoring of aerosol parameters with high time resolution was mounted in the moving laboratory. During this expedition the total particle concentration was typically of the order of few thousand particles /cm 3 varying between 300 and 40 000 particles /cm 3 . The concentrations were the lowest in the rural area between Chita and Khabarovsk and the highest near larger villages and towns. Particle concentration levels measured on the way to Vladivostok and back were similar at both ends of the route but differed in the middle, between 4000 and 7000 km, were the concentration was notably lower on the westward route.
