Objectives

• Study transport of CBL DMS through clouds

• Study the distribution of SO2 in and around clouds

• Estimate loss of SO2 in clouds using DMS and other conservative tracers

• Study CCN formation around clouds

Atmospheric Pressure Ionization Mass Spectrometry (APIMS)

• ions are formed by ion - molecule reactions initiated by electrons emitted by nickel-63

• DMS is determined using proton transfer ionization to form DMSH+

• SO2 is determined as SO5- formed by reactions initiated with ozone,

carbon dioxide, and oxygen

• ion - molecule reactions are fast: leads to high rate determinations with ambient species and internal standard alternately measured (25 samples per second for each ion)

• calibration is achieved with isotopically labeled internal standards: deuterated DMS and 34SO2

Advantages of the internal isotopically labeled internal standard

• calibration for every sample

• determination of the ambient analyte without knowing the instrument absolute sensitivity

• can determine the lower limit of detection for every sample

• internal standard acts as a carrier for low concentrations of the analyte

Combined effect: can determine DMS and SO2 both in and out of cloud with high precision and accuracy at high rates
