Abstract
The effect of reductions in the initial gas phase concentrations of SO
2,
NO
x
and reactive hydrocarbons on sulfate and nitrate production and deposition under precipitating conditions is studied using a one-dimensional time-dependent version of the STEM-II model. Simulations corresponding to highly polluted, moderately polluted and rural conditions are evaluated for both daytime and night-time conditions. The simulation results indicate that complex relationships can exist between the initial concentrations of primary pollutants and the resultant sulfate and nitrate deposition. The results also demonstrate a strong coupling between the gas phase photochemical cycles and acid formation in clouds
within storm events.
