Exploring the influence of land use on the urban carbonyl sulfide budget: a case study of the metropolitan area of Barcelona
Estruch, Carme; Belviso, Sauveur; Badia Moragas, Alba; Vidal Canedo, Veronica; Curcoll Masanes, Roger; Udina Sistach, Mireia; Grossi, Claudia; Morguí, Josep-Anton; Segura, Ricard; Ventura Caballé, Sergi; Sola Salvatierra, Yolanda; Villalba Mendez, Gara (John Wiley & sons, 2023-12-19)
Article
Open AccessCarbonyl sulfide (OCS) is used to quantify the carbon capture potential of the biosphere because of its direct correlation with CO2 uptake during photosynthesis. However, to constrain the urban biosphere signal, it is ... -
First estimation of CH4fluxes using the222Rn Tracer Method over the central Iberian Peninsula
Grossi, Claudia; Vogel, Felix; Morguí, Josep Anton; Curcoll Masanes, Roger; Agueda Costafreda, Alba; Batet Torrell, Óscar; Nofuentes, Manel; Occhipinti, Paola; Vargas Drechsler, Arturo; Rodó, Xavier (WIT Press, 2014)
Conference report
Open AccessEmissions of CH4 over the central Iberian Peninsula have been estimated experimentally for the first time using the Radon Tracer Method (RTM), which uses the atmospheric noble radioactive gas 222Rn as an auxiliary tracer. ... -
Full characterization and calibration of a transfer standard monitor for atmospheric radon measurements
Curcoll Masanes, Roger; Grossi, Claudia; Röttger, Stefan; Vargas Drechsler, Arturo (European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2024-05-21)
Article
Open AccessIn this work, a full characterization of the new user-friendly version of the Atmospheric Radon MONitor (ARMON), used to measure very low activity concentrations of the radioactive radon gas in the outdoor atmosphere, is ... -
Ground-based mobile measurements to track urban methane emissions from natural gas in 12 cities across eight countries
Vogel, Felix; Ars, Sebastien; Wunch, Debra; Lavoie, Jean-Michel; Gillespie, Louis; Maazallahi, Hossein; Röckmann, Thomas; Necki, Jaroslaw; Bartyzel, Jakub; Jagoda, Pawel; Lowry, David; Curcoll Masanes, Roger; Grossi, Claudia (2024-01-25)
Article
Open AccessTo mitigate methane emission from urban natural gas distribution systems, it is crucial to understand local leak rates and occurrence rates. To explore urban methane emissions in cities outside the U.S., where significant ... -

Metrology for low-cost CO2 sensors applications: the case of a steady-state through-flow (SS-TF) chamber for CO2 fluxes observations
Curcoll Masanes, Roger; Morguí, Josep-Anton; Kamnang, Armand; Cañas, Lidia; Vargas Drechsler, Arturo; Grossi, Claudia (2022-05-09)
Article
Open AccessSoil CO2 emissions are one of the largest contributions to the global carbon cycle, and a full understanding of processes generating them and how climate change may modify them is needed and still uncertain. Thus, a dense ... -
Modelling the impacts of emission changes on O3 sensitivity, atmospheric oxidation capacity, and pollution transport over the Catalonia region
