Chemical characteristics of snow in the region along the Sea of Japan / Kazuhide Satow.
Title: | Chemical characteristics of snow in the region along the Sea of Japan / Kazuhide Satow. |
Author(s): | Satow, Kazuhide. |
Date: | 1993. |
In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1993.), Vol. 18 (1993) |
Abstract: | Average pH value of precipitation in Nagaoka over past 4.5 years is 4.8, but is lower in winter. Electric conductivities are higher in winter. Newly fallen snow from coast inland for 55 km, south of Nagaoka, was sampled. Average pH values of 4.63 to 4.90 were obtained. From distribution of anions and cations, it is concluded that strong north-west monsoons during winter bring abundance of snow with sea-salt components from Sea of Japan, along with many non-sea-salt components, possibly from Asian continent. |
