Dimethylsulfide undergoes a photooxidation reaction with OH radical during the daytime, but with NO_3 radical during nighttime. This reaction has two pathways : hydrogen abstraction and OH addition to the sulfur atom. The oxidation of DMS produces sulfur dioxide (SO_2) and methanesulfonic acid (MSA or CH_3SO_3H) as intermediate products, and non-sea-salt sulfate (nss-SO_4^<2->) as an end product. We considered the reaction processes in detail to obtain quantitatively the concentrations of SO_2,MSA and nss-SO_4^<2->. The calculated concentrations are consistent with the observed values. It is concluded that DMS is a dominant source of aerosol particles included nss-SO_4^<2-> in the marine atmosphere. The calculation indicates that most nss-SO_4^<2-> must be produced by heterogeneous reactions of SO_2 through cloud droplets. Other processes, MSA oxidation and homogeneous SO_2 oxidation, are inefficient in producing abundant nss-SO_4^<2->.}, pages = {126--127}, title = {SULFUR COMPOUNDS OF PHYTOPLANKTON ORIGIN IN THE ATMOSPHERIC BOUNDARY-LAYER}, volume = {4}, year = {1991} }
