Abstract: | A study of deposition velocities to snow was conducted during the 1982–1983 and 1983–1984 winters at the University of Michigan Biological Station in northern Michigan. Weekly measurements were made of dry deposition rates to snow and the atmospheric concentrations of the depositing species. SO2, with an average concentration of 2.2 ppb, was the dominant atmospheric sulfur containing species. NO2, with an average concentration of 1.8 ppb, was the dominant atmospheric nitrogenous species. NO−3 deposition was due primarily to HNO3, which averaged 0.2 ppb. The HNO3 deposition velocity averaged 1.4cm s−1. The SO2 deposition velocity varied with temperature, averaging 0.15 cm s−1 for samples with appreciable exposure time above − 3°C, and 0.06 cm s−1 for samples which remained below an ambient temperature of −3°C. Deposition velocities of Ca2+, Mg2+ , Na+, K+ and NH+4 were 2.1, 1.5, 0.44, 0.51 and 0.10cm s−1, respectively. The mass median diameters of these species were 4.4, 2.7, 1.8, 0.9 and 0.46 μm, respectively. |
