摘要

In the first part of this study for revisiting the coldcondensation effect on global distribution of semi-volatile organicchemicals (SVOCs), the atmospheric transport of SVOCs to the Arctic in themid-troposphere in a mean meridional atmospheric circulation over theNorthern Hemisphere was simulated by a two-dimensional (2-D) atmospherictransport model. Results show that under the mean meridional atmosphericcirculation the long-range atmospheric transport of SVOCs from warmlatitudes to the Arctic occurs primarily in the mid-troposphere. Althoughmajor sources are in low and mid-latitude soils, the modeled airconcentration of SVOCs in the mid-troposphere is of the same order as orhigher than that near the surface, demonstrating that the mid-troposphere isan important pathway and reservoir of SVOCs. The cold condensation of thechemicals is also likely to take place in the mid-troposphere over a sourceregion of SVOCs in warm low latitudes through interacting with clouds. Wedemonstrate that the temperature dependent vapour pressure and atmosphericdegradation rate of SVOCs exhibit similarities between lower atmosphere overthe Arctic and the mid-troposphere over a tropical region. Frequentoccurrence of atmospheric ascending motion and convection over warmlatitudes carry the chemicals to a higher altitude where some of thesechemicals may partition onto solid or aqueous phase through interaction withatmospheric aerosols, cloud water droplets and ice particles, and becomemore persistent at lower temperatures. Stronger winds in the mid-tropospherethen convey solid and aqueous phase chemicals to the Arctic where they sinkby large-scale descending motion and wet deposition. Using calculated waterdroplet-air partitioning coefficient of several persistent organicsemi-volatile chemicals under a mean air temperature profile from theequator to the North Pole we propose that clouds are likely importantsorbing media for SVOCs and pathway of the cold condensation effect andpoleward atmospheric transport. The role of deposition and atmosphericdescending motion in the cold condensation effect over the Arctic is alsodiscussed.
