Iodine compounds were measured above, below and within the sea ice of the Weddell Sea during a cruise in 2009, to make progress in elucidating the mechanism of local enhancement and volatilisation of iodine. I 2 mixing ratios of up to 12.4 pptv were measured 10 m above the sea ice, and up to 31 pptv...
