Abstract
During 30.05. - 16.06.1996 on-line GC/FID measurements of NMHC in the range of C-4 - C-12 were carried out at a suburban site within the Greater Athen s Area (GAA). Due to persisting strong Etesian winds that primarily transpo rt rural air masses to the GAA background conditions within the GAA could b e observed. This allowed discrimination between anthropogenic and biogenic species since significantly different diurnal variations of these compounds were found. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
