THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF ATMOSPHERIC AEROSOLS, I: MEASUREMENTS AT ROUND HILL FIELD STATION, JUNE–JULY 1953

摘要: New data concerning the chemical composition of atmospheric aerosol particles in two radial size-ranges 0.08 < r 0.8 micrometers and r< 8 micrometers, were obtained during a four-week period Atlantic coast. The samples analyzed for five components, Na/sup +/, Cl/sup -/, Co/sub 4//sup 2 NH/sub NO/sub 3//sup later also 2//sup ClO/sub Mg/sup + +/. large particles, with consisted nearly entirely sulfate ammonia, as was found previous investigations central Europe. Besides these substances, giant contained variable, though sometimes considerable, amounts nitrate sodium chloride. Up to wind speeds at least beuford 5, production sea-salt seems thus be limited radii above micrometers. components +/ not present limit detection.
