The multi-seasonal NO[subscript y] budget in coastal Antarctica and its link with surface snow and ice core nitrate : results from the CHABLIS campaign
Measurements of a suite of individual NO[subscript y] components were carried out at Halley station in coastal Antarctica as part of the CHABLIS campaign (Chemistry of the Antarctic Boundary Layer and the Interface with Snow). Conincident measurements cover over half a year, from austral winter 2004...
