DMS analysis: “Purge and trap” Sample (20ml) is loaded into the system (A). DMS stripped from the water using UHP nitrogen at 100 ml/min (B) and absorbed into a Tenax-TA trap held at -170°C (C). After 10 minutes sample is desorbed onto a Chromasorb 330 column using boiling water, and elutes onto a Gas Chromatograph with a flame photometric detector. A C B
Photolysis • Mostly parameterized as function of PAR. • Recent data show that photolysis is mainly caused by the UV range ( e.g. Bouillon et al., 2006): UVA: 70%, UVB:30%) and varies with NO3- content (Bouillon and Miller 2004). • Calculate photolysis as f(UV): Based on photolysis rates, DMS, UVA/B from SERIES we obtain: photo= cA x UVA(z) + cB x UVB(z) (cA,B = 0.026; 2.6 d-1 (Wm-2)-1)
