Snowpacks contain a variety of chemicals, including organic pollutants such as toxic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). While PAHs undergo photodegradation in snow and ice, the rates of these reactions remain in debate. Some studies report that photochemical reactions in snow proceed at rates similar to those expected in a supercooled aqueous solution, but other studies report faster reaction rates, particularly at the air−ice interface (i.e., the quasi-liquid layer, or QLL). In addition, one study reported a surprising nonlinear dependence on photon flux. Here we examine the photodegradation of two common PAHs, anthracene and pyrene, in/on ice and in solution. For a given PAH, rate constants are similar in aqueous solution, in internal liquid-like regions of ice, and at the air−ice interface. In addition, we find the expected linear relationship between reaction rate constant and photon flux. Our results indicate that rate constants for the photochemical loss of PAHs in, and on, snow and ice are very similar to those in aqueous solution, with no enhancement at the air−ice interface.
