Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) have direct influences on air quality and climate. They indeed play a key role in atmospheric chemistry, as precursors of secondary pollutants, such as ozone (O3) and secondary organic aerosols (SOA). To this respect, long-term datasets of in-situ atmospheric measurements are crucial to characterize the variability of atmospheric chemical composition, its sources and trends. The on-going establishment of the Aerosols, Cloud, and Trace gases Research InfraStructure (ACTRIS) allows implementing the collection and provision of such high-quality datasets. In this context, online and continuous measurements of O3, nitrogen oxides (NOX) and aerosols have been carried out since 2012 at the SIRTA observatory, located in the Paris region, France. Within the last decade, VOC measurements have been conducted offline at SIRTA, until the implementation of a real-time monitoring which started in January 2020, using a Proton-Transfer-Reaction Quadrupole Mass-Spectrometer (PTR-Q-MS). The dataset acquired during the first two years of online VOC measurements provides insights on their seasonal and diurnal variabilities. The additional long-term datasets obtained from co-located measurements (NOX, aerosol physical and chemical properties, meteorological parameters) are used to better characterize the atmospheric conditions and to further interpret the obtain results. Results also include insights on VOC's main sources and the influence of meteorological conditions and air mass origin on their levels, in the Paris region. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the year 2020 notably comprised a quasi-total lockdown in France in Spring, and a lighter one in Autumn. Therefore, a focus is made on the impact of these lockdowns on the VOC variability and sources. A change in the behaviour of VOC markers for anthropogenic sources was observed during the first lockdown, reflecting a change in human activities. This dataset could be further used as input for atmospheric models and can be found under https://doi.org/10.14768/f8c46735-e6c3-45e2-8f6f-26c6d67c4723 (Simon et al, 2022). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
