Altitude-dependent role of nitric acid in iodic acid-iodous acid nucleation: from marine boundary layer catalyst to upper troposphere core component

Abstract. With global sulfur emissions declining and concurrent marine iodine emissions rising, new particle formation (NPF) driven by iodic acid (HIO3) and iodous acid (HIO2) has become critical to global aerosol and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) budget. However, the role of u...
