Abstract:

Results of analysis of weekly cycles in the nitrogen dioxide content and aerosol mass concentration in the surface atmospheric layer at Zvenigorod Scientific Station of the IAP RAS are given. Weekly cycles in aerosol and NO2, which would be statistically significant, have not been revealed either for the whole 20-year period of measurements or for seasons and specific years except for the weekly cycle in aerosol mass concentration in 1996 with maximum values on Saturday and minimum values occurring on Wednesday-Thursday. Data of aerologic sounding at Dolgoprudnyi near Moscow are used for interpretation of the results obtained.
