Laboratory studies of the nitric acid trihydrate: Implications for the south polar stratosphere
Abstract
Vapor pressures of HNO 3 and H 2 O have been measured over the trihydrate crystal, formed by vapor deposit on a glass surface. In the temperature range 190 K to 205 K the two phase‐equilibrium trihydrate/vapor was studied by adding and removing H 2 O. Coexistence equilibria vapor pressures of trihydrate/solid solutions of HNO 3 in ice (‘ice’) and of mono‐/trihydrate were also measured. Results show that for typical mixing ratios of H 2 O and HNO 3 found in the lower stratosphere (3 ppm H 2 O, 5 ppb HNO 3) the trihydrate would start to form at temperatures about 7 K higher than the ice point. The pressure of atmospheric HNO 3 would rapidly decrease as the atmosphere cools without large changes in partial pressures of H 2 O. These laboratory results provide information on the formation of polar stratospheric clouds containing H 2 O and HNO 3.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
