Recirculation of bomb 36Cl — •V. Lazarev1, A. Blinov2, H. Sachsenhauser1, and E. Nolte11Fakultät für Physik, E15, TU München — 2St.Petersburg State Technical University, Russia

AMS measurements of 36Cl in globally distributed annual precipitation samples have given strong evidence that the experimentally determined deposition fluxes are in average by a factor of about three larger than fluxes calculated from cosmic ray induced atmospheric production. The deviations are most pronounced in tropical regions. These deviations can be explained by storage of part of bomb 36Cl in the biosphere, reentering the troposphere as CH3Cl, destruction by OH reactions and tropospheric fall-out.

Experiments to collect CH3Cl from the air and to measure 36Cl/Cl ratios in order to check the hypothesis are presented. Other experiments are performed to measure 36Cl concentrations in lakes with residence times of the lake water between years and thousand years to derive the part of 36Cl deposition fluxes due to recirculation.
