Sulfur cycle at Last Glacial Maximum: Model results versus Antarctic ice core data
International audience For the first time, an atmospheric general circulation and sulfur chemistry model is used to simulate sulfur deposition in Antarctica at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). Dimethylsulfide (DMS), emitted by phytoplankton, is the dominant source of atmospheric sulfur in Antarctica....
