“…This is in accordance with Henry's Law constants (Zhou and Mopper, 1990). Satsumabayashi et al (2001) found significant concentrations of pinonaldehyde (0.16-13 µg/l) in rain and snow in central Japan.…”

Abstract.A variety of C 1 -C 12 carbonyl compounds were measured in the air of a boreal coniferous forest located in Hyytiälä, Southern Finland. 24-hour samples were collected during March and April in 2003 using DNPH (2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine) coated C 18 -cartridges and analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).Altogether 22 carbonyl compounds were quantified. The most abundant carbonyls were acetone (24-hour average 1340 ng/m 3 ), formaldehyde (480 ng/m 3 ) and acetaldehyde (360 ng/m 3 ). Concentrations of monoterpene reaction products nopinone (9 ng/m 3 ) and limona ketone (5 ng/m 3 ) were low compared to the most abundant low molecular weight carbonyls. Trajectory analysis showed that highest concentrations of carbonyls were measured in the air masses coming from the East and the lowest in the air masses cycled long time over Scandinavia. The total concentration of carbonyl compounds in Hyytiälä in March/April 2003 was much higher than the concentration of aromatic hydrocarbons and monoterpenes in April 2002.Scaling the concentrations against reactivity with the OHradical showed, that in spite of relatively low ambient concentrations higher molecular weight aldehydes contribute significantly to the total OH-reactive mass of carbonyls. The impact of carbonyl compounds on OH-radical chemistry is important. Contribution of carbonyls as an OH sink is comparable to that of NO 2 and higher than monoterpenes and aromatic hydrocarbons.Lifetimes of the measured carbonyls with respect to reactions with OH radicals, ozone (O 3 ), and nitrate (NO 3 ) radicals as well as photolysis were estimated. The main sink reactions for most of the carbonyl compounds in Hyytiälä in springtime are expected to be reactions with the OH radical and photolysis. For 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one and limona ketone also reactions with ozone are important. The sources of Correspondence to: H. Hellén (heidi.hellen@fmi.fi) carbonyl compounds are presently highly uncertain. Based on the comparisons with urban concentrations the direct anthropogenic emissions are not as important as secondary biogenic and anthropogenic sources or primary biogenic sources in Hyytiälä.

This range of concentrations is comparable with previous studies of n-alkanes in snow, especially with Meyers and Hites (1982), Kawamura and Kaplan (1986), Leuenberger et al (1988), Satsumabayashi et al (2001), and Yamamoto et al (2011), FIGURE 2. n-Alkane distributions in the snow samples and the corresponding 5-day back trajectories for each sampled snowfall event in Sapporo.

However, to our knowledge, this is the first study where fresh snow was sampled throughout a whole winter season (December 2009-April 2010) and n-alkane stable carbon and hydrogen isotopic compositions co-reported.…”

“…soot) sources can contribute to precipitation in Arctic regions (Hansson et al, 1993;Hinkley, 1994). There is some evidence for the observed increase in the number of storms in certain areas of the globe which can alter the transport and distribution of chemicals or biological entities (Wang et al, 2011;Zhang et al, 2007;Erel et al, 2006) with potential impacts on precipitation patterns (Sempere and Kawamura, 1994;Satsumabayashi et al, 2001). Although the pivotal role of dust in the atmospheric global circulation (Dunion and Velden, 2004;Wu, 2007), radiative budget (Sokolik and Toon, 1996;Kaufman et al, 2001), air pollution (Prospero, 1999;VanCuren, 2003) and cloud formation (Toon, 2003) has been documented, there is little known about how the newly introduced pool of transported microbial entities by dust to the Arctic impacts the change of the total Arctic microbial pool or affects the freezing and melting processes of snow and ice matrices in this region.…”

Abstract. During the spring of 2009, as part of the OceanAtmosphere-Sea Ice-Snowpack (OASIS) campaign in Barrow, Alaska, USA, we examined the identity, population diversity, freezing nucleation ability of the microbial communities of five different snow types and frost flowers. In addition to the culturing and gene-sequence-based identification approach, we utilized a state-of-the-art genomic next-generation sequencing (NGS) technique to examine the diversity of bacterial communities in Arctic samples. Known phyla or candidate divisions were detected (11-18) with the majority of sequences (12.3-83.1 %) belonging to one of the five major phyla: Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Cyanobacteria. The number of genera detected ranged from, 101-245. The highest number of cultivable bacteria was observed in frost flowers (FFs) and accumulated snow (AS) with 325 ± 35 and 314 ± 142 CFU m L −1 , respectively; and for cultivable fungi 5 ± 1 CFU m L −1 in windpack (WP) and blowing snow (BS). Morphology/elemental composition and ice-nucleating abilities of the identified taxa were obtained using high resolution electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and ice nucleation cold-plate, respectively. Freezing point temperatures for bacterial isolates ranged from −20.3 ± 1.5 to −15.7 ± 5.6 • C, and for melted snow samples from −9.5 ± 1.0 to −18.4 ± 0.1 • C. An isolate belonging to the genus Bacillus (96 % similarity) had ice nucleation activity of −6.8 ± 0.2 • C. Comparison with Montreal urban snow, revealed that a seemingly diverse community of bacteria exists in the Arctic with some taxa possibly originating from distinct ecological environments. We discuss the potential impact of snow microorganisms in the freezing and melting process of the snowpack in the Arctic.
