The role of blowing snow in the activation of bromine over first-year Antarctic sea ice

It is well known that during polar springtime halide sea salt ions, in particular Br<sup>-</sup>, are photochemically activated into reactive halogen species (e.g., Br and BrO), where they break down tropospheric ozone. This research investigated the role of blowing snow in transporting...
