The atmospheric chemistry of iodine is important in diverse ways. First, it provides the route
for iodine, which is an essential dietary element for mammals, to be transported from its …

Iodine was discovered as a novel element in 1811 during the Napoleonic Wars. To
celebrate the bicentennial anniversary of this event we reflect on the history and highlight …

Halogen chemistry is well known for ozone destruction in the stratosphere, however reactive
halogens also play an important role in the chemistry of the troposphere. In the last two …

Brown algae represent a major component of littoral and sublittoral zones in temperate and
subtropical ecosystems. An essential adaptive feature of this independent eukaryotic …

Fluorescence Assay by Gas Expansion (FAGE) has been used to detect ambient levels of
OH and HO 2 radicals at the Cape Verde Atmospheric Observatory, located in the tropical …

Although tropospheric reactive halogen chemistry is well studied in coastal and polar
environments, the presence of halogens over the open ocean environment has not been …

Reactive iodine plays a key role in determining the oxidation capacity, or cleansing capacity,
of the atmosphere in addition to being implicated in the formation of new particles in the …

This paper presents a summary of the measurements made during the heavily-instrumented
Reactive Halogens in the Marine Boundary Layer (RHaMBLe) coastal study in Roscoff on …

Iodine oxides, such as iodate, should be the only thermodynamically stable sink species for
iodine in the troposphere. However, field observations have increasingly found very little …

Introduction. In this Review, we focus on the most significant and essential progress in
atmospheric analytical chemistry published during the past few years. The preceding review …
