An Experimental Assessment of the Importance of S(IV) Oxidation by Hypohalous Acids in the Marine Atmosphere
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Hypohalous acids (HOCl + HOBr) play an important but highly uncertain role in sulfate aerosol production in the marine atmosphere due to the unmeasured reaction rate constants (k) of HOCl/HOBr and HSO3−, the dominant S(IV) species in acidified sea salt aerosols and cloudwater. We directly determined by investigating the kinetics of aqueous oxidation of dissolved SO2 by HOCl in low pH aerosol particles in a flow tube. Further, we predicted using a novel kinetics model developed from the HOCl/HSO3− results. and were estimated to be 2 and 3 orders of magnitude lower, respectively, than the values used in atmospheric models. We assess the importance of halogen‐driven S(IV) oxidation in the marine atmosphere with this new fundamental understanding and find that in‐cloud sulfate production via HOBr oxidation remains an important atmospheric process, but the HOCl oxidation pathway in acidified sea salt aerosols is unlikely to be important.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
