The geochemical cycling of reactive chlorine through the marine troposphere

Abstract: Heterogeneous reactions involving sea‐salt aerosol in the marine troposphere are the major global source for volatile inorganic chlorine. We measured reactant and product species hypothesized to be associated with these chemical transformations as a function of phase, particle size, and altitude over the North Atlantic Ocean during the summer of 1988. Concentrations of HCl were typically less than 1.0 ppbv near the sea surface and decreased with altitude and with distance from the U.S. east coast. Concentratio… Show more

“…Chloride concentrations exceeding 1 M may be found in sea-salt particles, which have [Cl] close to 5 M when freshly generated (Sander and Crutzen, 1996). While the sodium content of the particles is conserved during transport, there are mechanisms by which chloride may be lost to the gas-phase including acid displacement of HCl following uptake of HNO 3 or H 2 SO 4 as well as reactive losses via uptake of N 2 O 5 and other inorganic trace gases and radicals (Keene et al, 1990(Keene et al, , 1999von Glasow et al, 2001). The presence of chloride in non-marine aerosol is related to the uptake of HCl to particles and formation of ammonium chloride, where the HCl may be either of anthropogenic or marine origin.…”

“…Numerous mechanisms have been proposed to explain the exact pathway for the heterogeneous formation of Cl2. For example, the reaction of gas phase O3 at the particle surface has been suggested [31,32]. …”

“…Dissolved S(IV) is oxidized in the aqueous phase and on the surfaces of particles by a number of oxidants, such as H 2 O 2 , O 3 , HOCl, HOBr and O 2 catalyzed by metals and perhaps by chloride ions. [50][51][52][53][54][55]57,60,71,[81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91][92][93][94][95] SO 2 can also be oxidized in the gas phase, mainly by OH, 96 to produce sulfuric acid which is then taken up by cloud droplets and particles; however, this is generally a minor pathway compared to aqueous oxidation. 16 In this work, we demonstrate the application of DRIFTS to studying the uptake and oxidation of gaseous SO 2 at 50% relative humidity (RH) on NaCl-MgCl 2 Á 6H 2 O salt mixtures that have been previously reacted with OH formed by the photolysis of O 3 in the presence of water vapor.…”
