Cyclic volatile methyl siloxanes in the terrestrial and aquatic environment at remote Arctic sites
Cyclic volatile methyl siloxanes (cVMS) are widely used chemicals with high emissions to the atmosphere due to their volatility. They are found in the Arctic atmosphere, indicating potential for long-range transport. This study examined the potential for deposition of cVMS (D4, D5, D6) to surface media via snow in Arctic regions. Results showed low cVMS levels in vegetation, soil, sediment, and marine biota. D4 was detected above detection limits but generally below quantification limits, while D5 and D6 were generally not detected. This aligns with current research, suggesting negligible cVMS input from atmospheric deposition via snow and snow melt.

This study investigates atmospheric microplastic (MP) exchange between marine and terrestrial compartments and associated deposition patterns at Bushehr Port, Persian Gulf. We combined field sampling of the sea-surface microlayer (SML), bulk seawater, sea foam, deposited particles, and suspended airborne particles with FLEXPART Lagrangian dispersion modelling and exploratory Elastic Net regression to evaluate MP sources, transport pathways, and meteorological controls. The simulations indicate a pronounced seasonal contrast in atmospheric MP transport and suggest that land-based sources collectively represented the largest modelled contribution to the atmospheric MP burden. Within the FLEXPART inventory, textile-related microfibres were the largest modelled source category for suspended MPs (∼61%); for deposited MPs, the estimated microfibre contribution (∼32%) was comparable to bare-soil resuspension (∼31%), while sea spray contributed ∼11% to both fractions. Elastic Net regression repeatedly retained air pressure as a positive predictor and the Lifted Index as a negative predictor; however, these associations are interpreted as exploratory because of the limited number of independent sampling intervals. Sea foam and SML samples were enriched in MPs relative to bulk seawater, although the enrichment pattern varied with wave period and tidal-current conditions. The large difference between field-derived net deposition velocities (Vd) and theoretical terminal velocities (Vt) indicates that turbulence, resuspension, environmental mixing, and particle-shape assumptions substantially affect the apparent removal of atmospheric MPs. Overall, the results suggest that MP cycling at this semi-enclosed coastal margin is influenced by coupled land-based emissions, marine surface processes, and atmospheric dynamics, highlighting the need for mitigation strategies that consider both local terrestrial inputs and air-sea exchange.

CZ0049 - Activity 2. Implementation of a secondary aerosol module in the CAMx model. NILU TR
Prosjekt CZ0049 har som mål å bedre vår kunnskap og karakteristikk av PM, spesielt dannelse og identifisering av sekundære organiske aerosoler. Rapporten beskriver resultater fra aktivitet 2 "Implementering av en Sekundær Organisk Aerosol modul i CAMx". Vi har studert SOA reaksjonskammereksperimenter fra litteraturen og generert en oppdatert parameterisering av antropogen SOA dannelse. Den nye parameteriseringen er implementert i kjemitransportmodellen CAMx. Kildekode og detaljert arbeidsbeskrivelse er inkludert i rapporten.
