H.: Photochemical production of molecular bromine in Arctic surface snowpacks, Nature Geosci
Following the springtime polar sunrise, ozone concentrations in the lower troposphere episodically decline to near-zero levels1. These ozone depletion events are initiated by an increase in reactive bromine levels in the atmosphere2–5. Under these conditions, the oxidative capacity of the Arctic tro...
