Description:

Spatial variations of atmospheric alkylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (Alk-PAHs) are key to understanding their long-range atmospheric transport (LRAT). However, limited Alk-PAHs data have hindered their LRAT characterizations on a global scale. In this study, 49 Alk-PAHs were measured in the atmospheric samples collected across the Western Pacific to the Southern Ocean. The summed concentration of 39 frequently detected Alk-PAHs (S39Alk-PAHs) was 25.8 ± 25.3 ng m-3. The concentrations of S39Alk-PAHs significantly declined with the decrease in latitude (°N). Higher concentrations (55.8 ± 33.8 ng m-3) were linked to continental air mass compared to oceanic/Antarctica air mass (17.0 ± 13.6 ng m-3), highlighting continental emissions as the primary source of marine atmospheric Alk-PAHs. An unexpected increase in the G/P partitioning ratio (KP) was found in samples farther away from the continent, which cannot be explained by the influence of temperature on the partitioning process. Deposition analysis suggested that gaseous concentrations and the G/P partitioning largely influenced deposition patterns. Hypothetical scenario analysis indicated that increased KP under snowy conditions could enhance the total Alk-PAH deposition. These findings emphasize the need for accurate characterization of partitioning and deposition processes when studying the global fate of Alk-PAHs, particularly in remote and polar regions.
