Lessons from INDOEX and GEOS-CHEM • The evolution of alkalinity depends on atmospheric acidity and has a short (< 1 hour) atmospheric lifetime. • Sulfate formation on sea-salt chemistry should be included in models estimating the radiative effects of sulfate from DMS emissions. Ship SO 2 in North Atlantic 0 3. 3 6. 6 106 kg S • The acidification of the atmosphere, particularly in the Northern Hemisphere, may have increased the effectiveness of the marine biological control on climate.
