Dry flux and dry deposition velocity of nitric oxide, sulfur dioxide a
nd ozone were measured by the gradient method during the TRACT campaig
n in Rhine valley, Germany, above a surface covered by short vegetatio
n. Eddy diffusivity was calculated by means of Monin-Obukhov's similar
ity theory. Calculated dry deposition velocities for ozone and sulfur
dioxide were 0.05-0.07 and 0.19-0.20 cm s(-1) in stable and unstable c
ases, respectively. In the case of nitric oxide emission was observed
in daytime, probably reflecting bacterial production. (C) 1998 Elsevie
