The mechanism contains the gas–aqueous phase partitioning and further chemical processing of nine commonly investigated photosensitizers and particulate HULIS. In addition, the chemistry of secondarily formed singlet oxygen is included in a detailed manner. Overall, the newly developed mechanism module CAPRAM-PS1.0 comprises 284 processes. Performed model simulations focus on the environmental conditions of (i) a fresh smoke plume from a wildfire and (ii) an urban polluted background. The simulation revealed that the quenching of activated photosensitizers is dominated either by the organic matrix and copper under particle conditions or by oxygen under cloud conditions. The modeled average photosensitizer and <sup>1</sup>O<sub>2</sub> concentrations range between (0.007–9.5) × 10<sup>–12</sup> and (0.0002–1.1) × 10<sup>–11</sup> mol l<sup>–1</sup>, respectively, and agree with measurements depending on the simulations. The main modeled loss of <sup>1</sup>O<sub>2</sub> is quenching by the water matrix with a 97% yield. The residual reactions are dominated by quenching through the organic matrix. The simulations indicate that effective quenching of photosensitizers and their main product <sup>1</sup>O<sub>2</sub> into the ground state inhibits the efficient production of particulate mass. Accordingly, great care should be taken not to overstate possible effects of photosensitization chemistry in atmospheric organic-containing aerosol particles.

However, P deposition and bioavailability remain poorly understood, limiting predictions of its role in marine productivity. To address this, P speciation, including organic, inorganic, and soluble contents in aerosol particles, was analyzed over 19 months at the Cape Verde (CVAO) and Namib Desert (NDAO) Atmospheric Observatories. P concentrations at NDAO (56.1 ± 62 ng/m<sup>3</sup>) were 47% higher than those at CVAO (29.8 ± 76 ng/m<sup>3</sup>) with dominant coarse mode contents and fine-to-coarse ratios (PM<sub>1.2</sub>/PM<sub>10</sub>) of 0.42–0.57 at NDAO and 0.17–0.32 at CVAO. Phosphorus sources at both sites include mineral dust and biomass burning with additional biogenic aerosols at NDAO. Organic P made up 19% and 39% of total P at NDAO and CVAO, respectively. Soluble P was 20% more abundant at NDAO, linked to higher biomass burning source provenance and aerosol acidity, confirming previous reports that atmospheric processing enhances P solubility. P solubility was lower during Saharan and Namib dust events, indicating comparatively reduced solubility from mineral-dust sources. This first report of annual deposition fluxes from these regions reveals somewhat higher average values in the SETA (2.05 ± 2.8 μmol/m<sup>2</sup>d at NDAO) than the NETA (1.3 ± 3.4 μmol/m<sup>2</sup>d at CVAO), with pronounced differences in the austral winter months. Elevated dissolved inorganic nitrogen to dissolved inorganic P ratios at CVAO indicated a smaller contribution of atmospheric P deposition in mitigating nutrient limitation in the nearby waters. These findings offer new insights into atmospheric P solubility and fluxes, crucial for improving ocean-atmosphere models and understanding its ecological impacts in the tropical Atlantic.</p>","PeriodicalId":15,"journal":{"name":"ACS Earth and Space Chemistry","volume":"9 6","pages":"1465–1478 1465–1478"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.1021/acsearthspacechem.4c00411","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144312471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
