Application of copper(II)-based chemicals induces CH3Br and CH3Cl emissions from soil and seawater
Halogenated compounds impact stratospheric ozone. This study suggests agricultural application of Cu(II) chemicals induces abiotic production of methyl bromide and methyl chloride from soil and seawater, contributing to the atmospheric halogen load.
