Lateral Mantle H2O Variation Controls Orogen Width
2018-09-18
How the lithosphere deforms to accommodate convergence at continent-continent plate boundaries remains a long-standing geodynamic question. The South Island of New Zealand straddles the boundary between the Pacific and Australian continental plates and has long been considered a premier locality to study this issue.The research paper (Li et al., 2018) directly addresses the role of the lateral H2O...

From Atmospheric chemistry groupSun et al., JGR-A. 2018 doi:10.1002/2017JD027264Recently, aerosol water has received more attention because heterogeneous reactions of SO2, NO2, and NH3 on wet particles accelerate the severe haze formation in North China. Ammonium sulfate and ammonium nitrate (AS-AN) are key components of fine urban particles. Especially, nitrate concentration keeps increasing...
