| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we investigate possibilities that lightning to ocean surface induces geochemical cycles. Pulse discharge was used to simulate natural lightning. Seawater, river water and pure water were discharged under pure air or argon atmosphere. We found significant production of nitrogen oxides such as nitrate, nitrite and nitrous oxide. Both production and consumption were occurred for dissolved organic matters.
