Anthropogenic Impacts on Tropospheric Reactive Chlorine Since the Preindustrial
International audience Abstract Tropospheric reactive gaseous chlorine (Cl y ) impacts the atmosphere's oxidation capacity with implications for chemically reduced gases such as methane. Here we use Greenland ice‐core records of chlorine, sodium, and acidity, and global model simulations to sho...
