Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sulfate aerosols affect Earth’s radiative forcing through direct and indirect effects. Ice core data suggest minor changes in sulfate aerosols over the glacial cycles. However, the variations of source contributions of sulfate aerosols remain unclear. In this project, to estimate the changes in source contributions of sulfate aerosols in Antarctica, we analyzed sulfur isotopic ratios of surface snow and ice core. Sulfur isotope ratio of present-day surface snow over East Antarctica shows that the effects of the transport process are small, and major source of present-day sulfate aerosol is marine biogenic activity. The ice core data show that the sulfur isotopic ratio increased from the last glacial period to Holocene.
