Carbonyl sulfide (COS) is a trace gas, present in the troposphere, and also in the stratosphere, where it contributes to the stratospheric sulfate aerosol layer. It has both natural and anthropogenic sources. Natural processes include uptake by plants, while oceans, wetlands, volcanism and biomass b...
