摘要

Measurements of hydrogen peroxide (H_2O_2), pH, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and inorganic anions (chloride, nitrate, and sulfate) in rainwater were conducted on an event basis at a single site in Wilmington, NC for the past decade in a study that included over 600 individual rain events. Annual volume weighted average (VWA) H_2O_2 concentrations were negatively correlated (p < 0.001) with annual VWA nonseasalt sulfate (NSS) concentrations in low pH (<5) rainwater. Under these conditions H_2O_2 is the primary aqueous-phase oridant of SO_2 in the atmosphere. We attribute the increase of H_2O_2 to decreasing SO_2 emissions which has had the effect of reducing a major tropospheric sink for H_2O_2. Annual VWA H_2O_2 concentrations in low pH (<5) rains showed a significant increase over the time scale of this study, which represents the only long-term continuous data set of H_2O_2 concentrations in wet deposition at a single location. This compositional change has important implications because H_2O_2 is a source of highly reactive free radicals so its increase reflects a higher overall oxidation capacity of atmospheric waters. Also, because rainwater is an important mechanism by which H_2O_2 is transported from the atmosphere to surface waters, greater wet deposition of H_2O_2 could influence the redox chemistry of receiving watersheds which typically have concentrations 2—3 orders of magnitude lower than rainwater.
