Sulfur Cycle Glynis Jehle Morgan Rosenberg

2 A Biogeochemical Cycle
Sulfur, a Biogeochemical Cycle Acid Rain SO2 + OH· → HOSO2· HOSO2· + O2 → HO2· + SO3 SO3 (g) + H2O (l) → H2SO4 (l)

3 Sulfur Fluxes (Amounts in 1012 g S)
LITHOSPHERE 2.4 X 1010 Volcanoes Terrestrial Dust Weathering into Rivers Consumption Sedimentation Deposition from Atmosphere 200/yr 252/yr OCEANS 1.3 X 109 Sedimentation Sea Salt Particles Deposition from Atmosphere River Runoff 444/yr 275/yr SOILS/ LAND BIOTA 3 X 105 Biogenic Processes Deposition from Atmosphere 65/yr 2.5/yr

4 Sulfur Fluxes (Amounts in 1012 g S)
LAKES/RIVERS 300 River Runoff Deposition from Atmosphere Weathering from Lithosphere 137/yr 213/yr Atmosphere 4.8 Deposition Terrestrial Dust Biogenic Processes (Land and Ocean) Anthropogenic Emissions Sea Salt Particles Volcanoes 296/yr
