Unexplained high and persistent methyl bromide emissions in China

Large emissions of MeBr are occurring on China's east coast, where the density of industry is located

Sea animal colonies enhance carbonyl sulfide emissions from coastal Antarctic tundra

The Antarctic tundra shifts from an OCS sink to an OCS source when occupied by sea animal colonies

Unique biogeochemical characteristics in coastal ghost forests – The transition from freshwater forested wetland to salt marsh under the influences of sea level rise

We observed the decrease of aboveground productivity with forest-marsh transect. Degraded ghost forest had similar DOC concentrations with freshwater wetlands. Highest average current was from the in-situ MFC in the degraded ghost forest. Lowest CH4 and CO2 fluxes were observed in the degraded ghost forest. Degraded ghost forests have unique ecological and biogeochemical characteristics.

Atmospheric CCl4 degradation in Antarctic tundra soils and the evaluation on its partial atmospheric lifetime with respect to soil

This is the first study measuring CCl4 fluxes from the Antarctic tundra. Antarctic tundra soil is a small natural sink of atmospheric CCl4. It is estimated Antarctic tundra degrades about 2.4 metric tons CCl4 yr−1. CCl4 degradation in Antarctic tundra is likely abiotic and dependent on O2.Results supports the viewpoint CCl4 soil sink is smaller than previously thought.

Application of copper(II)-based chemicals induces CH3Br and CH3Cl emissions from soil and seawater

The widespread application of copper(II) pesticides in agriculture and the discharge of anthropogenic copper(II) to the oceans may account for part of the missing sources of CH3Br and CH3Cl.

Chloroform (CHCl3) emissions from coastal Antarctic tundra

In this study, the first in situ static-chamber measurements were conducted at coastal Antarctica tundra for CHCl3 fluxes, which showed that CHCl3 was naturally emitted from the Antarctic tundra at 35 ± 27 nmol m−2 d−1, comparable to other reported important natural sources.

The Saga of the Snow Lab’s Data

Robert Rhew is the faculty director of the Central Sierra field stations (which includes the Snow Lab, as well as the Sagehen Creek Field Station)

Global methyl halide emissions from rapeseed (*Brassica napus*) using life cycle measurements

This study quantifies methyl halide emissions from cultivated rapeseed (Brassica napus, cultivar: Empire), based on life cycle measurements and normalized to seed production.

Methyl Chloride and Methyl Bromide Production and Consumption in Coastal Antarctic Tundra Soils Subject to Sea Animal Activities

Antarctic tundra soil acted as a net sink for CH3Cl and CH3Br

Emission of volatile halogenated organic compounds over various Dead Sea landscapes

our findings point to the strong emission potential of a suite of VHOCs from saline soils and salt lakes and call for additional studies of emission rates and mechanisms of VHOCs from saline soils and salt lakes.
