Numerical Simulation of Air Pollution Transport Under Sea/Land Breeze Situation in Jakarta, Indonesia in Dry Season

  • Conference paper

Abstract

Air pollution in Jakarta in dry season (6–19 August 2004) was numerically investigated by using CTM. Obtained results showed: Pollutants rich air mass, which was transported from Jakarta to Java Sea by land breeze, was found as source of ozone rich air mass brought into Jakarta by sea breeze. Shallow sea breeze with 400 m in depth and thermal internal boundary layers caped by strong stable layer resulted in a characteristic ozone concentration profile with low at ground and high at 300 m. Shallow sea breeze layer was due to synoptic easterly and southeasterly in this season.
