“…Sodium and chloride levels in MAM were high, Some samples were taken before, during and after the passage of Hurricane "Alex" through Monterrey at the end of June and the beginning of July 2010. Monahan [31] found an abrupt increase of sea spray droplets when wind speed increases as hurricanes approach the coast; this was also observed by Lindner and Frysinger [32] and Padilla et al [3]. This could explain the unexpectedly high levels of sodium and chloride considering that Monterrey is not a coastal site.…”

Wet deposition was collected in Mexico City (MC), Metropolitan Area of Monterrey (MAM) and El Chico National Park (ECNP), during 2009 and 2010. pH, conductivity, Cl − , 2 4 SO − 3 NO − , 4 NH + , Na + , K + , Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ were determined. In MC, sulphate levels were greater than nitrate levels, and NH4 had mixed sources (vehicular emissions and agriculture activities). MAM had markedly alkaline atmospheric deposition, Na + and Cl − levels were unexpectedly high, especially during hurricane "Alex". Low pH values were found in ECNP and nitrate concentrations were high, suggesting the influence of a local source (forest fires). Deposition fluxes (Kg•ha −1 •yr −1) for N-NO 3 , N-NH 4 and S-SO 4 were 1.36, 2.74 and 4.84 for MAM; 7.27, 0.57 and 4.32 for ECNP; and 5.97, 4.96 and 6.78 for MC, respectively. Nitrogen deposition fluxes in ECNP were high considering that this site is a natural reserve.

“…Similarly, studies of the climatology of tropical cyclones in the Charleston area has found some patterns that may be useful for longterm forecasting (Lindner and Neuhauser 2018). The sea breeze and tropical cyclones also have impacted precipitation received in the Charleston area (Lindner and Frysinger 2007). Lindner and Cockcroft (2013) and Lindner et al (2018aLindner et al ( , 2018b have shown that indexical images can enhance public recognition of the concept and hazard of hurricane storm surge for the Charleston area.…”

A classification and regression tree analysis for sea fog has been developed using 648 low-visibility (<4.8 km) coastal fog events from 1998-2014 along the South Carolina and Georgia coastline. Correlations between these coastal fog events and relevant oceanic and atmospheric parameters determined the range in these parameters that were most favorable for predicting sea fog formation. Parameters examined during coastal fog events from 1998-2014 included sea surface temperature (SST), air temperature, dewpoint temperature, maximum wind speed, average wind speed, wind direction, inversion strength, and inversion height. The most favorable range in SST for sea fog formation was 10.6-23.9°C. The most favorable gaps between air temperature and SST, dewpoint temperature and SST, and dewpoint temperature and air temperature were found to be -1.7-2.2°C, 0°C, and 0-2.2°C, respectively. The most favorable range in maximum wind speed was 11.1-20.4 km h-1, and the most favorable wind directions were parallel to the coast or SST isopleths. The most favorable range in inversion height was 70.6-617.2 m, and the most favorable inversion strength was anything >6°C. Utilizing these eight predictors, a forecasting decision tree was created and beta tested during the 2016/2017 sea fog season. The decision tree successfully predicted sea fog on 17 of the 18 dates that it occurred (94%) and successfully predicted a lack of sea fog for 189 of the 194 days where sea fog did not occur (97%). Two of the six incorrect predictions appear to have extenuating circumstances. ABSTRACT (Manuscript

“…In contrast, Linder and Frysinger [37] and Lewandowska et al [38] suggested that coastal rainfall and marine-derived aerosols are enriched in F-, correlating with the Na content. Some areas-such as in mid-Wales and coastal soils in Victoria, Australia-show fluorine enrichment, possibly from marine sources [39].…”

Reconciling Environmental Safety and Economic Feasibility: A Review of Soil Fluorine Management Strategies in the Republic of Korea

Fluorine naturally occurs in soil and rocks; however, concerns arise when human activities or specific compounds increase its levels or bioavailability. South Korea faces challenges in managing soil fluorine contamination even though existing regulations based on total fluorine content are stricter than those in many developed countries. However, these regulations can be economically impractical because of Korea's naturally high background levels of fluorine in the soil. This study examined the international landscape of soil fluorine management and explored potential solutions that balance environmental protection with economic considerations. We propose a shift towards regulating specific and harmful fluorine compounds and prioritizing remediation based on bioavailability assessments. This approach can guide Korea towards a more effective and sustainable strategy for managing soil fluorine contamination.
