Abstract
From the outset, the present study was designed to determine fluxes (cf. Chap. 1). A special tower was erected for the installation of the equipment which is necessary to take samples of the various pollutants and to derive the appropriate meteorological auxiliary quantities (Michaelis et al. 1988, 1989a, b, 1990, 1992b,c; Michaelis and Theopold 1993). The tower was a 48m-high triangular lattice mast with favourable aerodynamic properties. It stood on a concrete base and was braced at four altitudes to three gravel-filled 10 m3 containers by 10 mm diameter steel cables. It was positioned 124 m northeast of the “Postturm” in an area characterized by a passably preserved tree population, so that the conditions for deposition measurements were rather favourable, in contrast to the conditions at the postal tower where the stand was already markedly cleared and where representative deposition measurements would have been practically impossible. The treetop height at the measuring station was about 26 m.
