摘要
Extensive populations of large HNO3-containing particles were observed in situ in the 1999-2000 Arctic winter vortex. Assuming nitric acid trihydrate (NAT) composition, the associated values of instantaneous gravitational flux of HNO3 are between 1.10(8) and 5.10(10) molec cm(-3) km day(-1) and are the largest ever derived from in situ measurements. The relationship between these observed populations and observed denitrification in the 1999-2000 Arctic vortex is developed using constraints of NAT formation and sedimentation. This analysis of the 1999-2000 winter provides a useful guide to interpreting future observations of polar stratospheric clouds and denitrification in the polar regions.
