Ganske, H.N. Berko, B.J. Finlayson-Pitts Title: Absorption Cross Sections for Gaseous ClNO2 and Cl2 at 298 K: Potential Organic Oxidant Source in the Marine Troposphere Journal/Source: J. Geophys. Res., 97, 7651-7656, (1992); DOI: 10.1029/92JD00414 Data: table, diagram Energy/Wavelength range: 270 - 400 nm Resolution: Temperature: 298 K Temperature dependence: no Pressure/Concentration: Phase: gas pH: Comments: The absorption cross sections for gaseous ClNO2 in the 200–370 nm region and for Cl2 in the 270-400 nm region have been determined at 298 K. The cross sections for Cl2 are in excellent agreement with the literature. Author to whom correspondence should be addressed: (e-mail address):
