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
