Chemical composition of marine aerosols of the 26th Chinese National Antarctic Research Expedition
The ionic compositions of aerosol samples collected during the 26th Chinese National Antarctic Research Expedition were analyzed and the sources of ions were distinguished. Cl(-), Na(+), SO(2-)4 , NO(-)3 , and Mg2+ were the most abundant ionic components in the marine aerosols. Cl¡ and Na+ contribut...
