On air‐borne transport of sulphur over the North Atlantic
Abstract The sulphur content in the precipitation collected on Ocean weather ships in the North Atlantic has been analysed. From these data and from the results of trajectory computations it is concluded that considerable amounts of anthropogenic sulphur are transported from North America towards Eu...
