Effects of frictionally retarded sea breeze and synoptic frontal passages on sulfur dioxide concentrations in New York City.

Abstract

Results show that upwind portions of New York City experience decreasing concentrations with the passage of sea breeze fronts, while downwind portions experience increasing concentrations. Synoptic fronts produce increasing concentrations in the less urbanized areas to the east and wet of Manhattan and decreasing concentrations in Manhattan. -from Authors
