The goal of the project is to test the hypothesis about the influence of electrical phenomena in the snow (ice)/air system on snow chemistry.
To achieve this goal we plan to solve following tasks:
1) We suppose to conduct an ion chromatography analysis of positively and negatively charged snow, as well as and background snow that were collected during wintering in 2022 near the Akademik Vernadskyi station with aim to determine the content of such cations as: sodium, potassium, magnesium, strontium, lithium, ammonium, and such anions as: nitrate, nitrite, sulfate, chloride, bromide.
2) We suppose to compare the chemical composition of positively and negatively charged snow and to analyze the possible reactions that can take place under these meteo conditions, which can explain a composition differences between positively and negatively charged samples.
