英文摘要 | Atmospheric deposition is one of the main sources of dissolved iron (Fe) in the ocean surfaces. Atmospheric processes are recognized as controlling fractional Fe solubility (Fe-sol%) in marine aerosol particles. However, the impact of these processes on Fe-sol% remains unclear. One of the reasons for this is the lack of field observations focusing on the relationship between Fe-sol% and Fe species in marine aerosol particles. In particular, the effects of organic ligands on Fe-sol% have not been thoroughly investigated in observational studies. In this study, Fe species in size-fractionated aerosol particles in the Pacific Ocean were determined using X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy. The internal mixing states of Fe and organic carbon were investigated using scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM). The effects of atmospheric processes on Fe-sol% in marine aerosol particles were investigated based on the speciation results. Iron in size-fractionated aerosol particles was mainly derived from mineral dust, regardless of aerosol diameter, because the enrichment factor of Fe was almost 1 in both coarse (PM>1.3) and fine aerosol particles (PM1.3). Approximately 80 % of the total Fe (insoluble + labile Fe) was present in PM>1.3, whereas labile Fe was mainly present in PM1.3. The Fe-sol% in PM>1.3 was not significantly increased (2.56 +/- 2.53 %, 0.00 %-8.50 %, n = 20) by the atmospheric processes because mineral dust was not acidified beyond the buffer capacity of calcite. In contrast, mineral dust in PM1.3 was acidified beyond the buffer capacity of calcite. As a result, Fe-sol% in PM1.3 (0.202 %-64.7 %, n = 10) was an order of magnitude higher than that in PM>1.3. The PM1.3 contained ferric organic complexes with humic-like substances (Fe(III)-HULIS, but not Fe-oxalate complexes), and the abundance correlated with Fe-sol%. Iron(III)-HULIS was formed during transport in the Pacific Ocean because Fe(III)-HULIS was not found in aerosol particles in Beijing and Japan. The pH estimations of mineral dust in PM1.3 established that Fe was solubilized by proton-promoted dissolution under highly acidic conditions (pH < 3.0), whereas Fe(III)-HULIS was stabilized under moderately acidic conditions (pH 3.0-6.0). Since the observed labile Fe concentration could not be reproduced by proton-promoted dissolution under moderately acidic conditions, the pH of mineral dust increased after proton-promoted dissolution. The cloud process in the marine atmosphere increases the mineral dust pH because the dust particles are covered with organic carbon and Na. The precipitation of ferrihydrite was suppressed by Fe(III)-HULIS owing to its high water solubility. Thus, the organic complexation of Fe with HULIS plays a significant role in the stabilization of Fe that was initially solubilized by proton-promoted dissolution. |
