Halogen Activation from Sea Ice: Nitrate Photolysis and Heterogeneous Reaction with Ozone

Oxidation of aqueous bromide into reactive, gas-phase bromine species has been of interest since the 1980’s, when the presence of bromine in the Arctic boundary layer was linked to ozone depletion events. We have investigated two different mechanisms for Br2 release from sea ice. We have shown that...
