    Notes: Abstract Analysis of the chemical composition of rain at high temporal resolution provides additional information on wet deposition processes. High resolution data was obtained using a microprocessor-based acid rain monitor at two sites in SW Scotland and SE England. Meteorological details of the transport and wet deposition processes during two frontal rain events were examined and related to rainfall composition. Rapid depletions of ion concentrations during heavy rainfall in the first event were interpreted using a rainfall scavenging model. The sub-event data for the second event showed the influence of frontal discontinuities. Increasing ionic concentrations during this second event were attributed both to the change in air mass, and to diminished upwind precipitation scavenging.

    Notes: Abstract A microprocessor-based acid rain monitor was used to make real-time measurements of conductivity and pH of rainwater within individual storms. The automated measurements were compared with laboratory analyses of a subset of the samples taken. The laboratory measurements tended to overestimate the pH because of temperature induced changes in dissociation and Henry's Law constants affecting ionic compounds in the rainwater. The measurement artefact due to these effects may result in average hydrogen ion concentrations being underestimated by approximately 10 to 15% at UK sites. The greatest systematic discrepancies would be anticipated at highly polluted sites and during low temperature acidic episodes. The concept of a rainwater acid fraction was investigated and found to be useful for quality control and interpretative purposes. The field measurement of conductivity of low ionic strength samples was slightly lower than the corresponding laboratory measurement, possibly caused by limited resolution of the conductivity probe or dissolution of fine particulate material.

    Notes: Summary Two oxidation procedures for the synthesis of silicabased aliphatic sulfonic acid cation-exchangers for HPLC are described. Several reaction conditions for oxidizing a terminal-bonded thiol with organic peroxides are provided along with their yields, capacities, reproducibility, and chromatographic behavior. Also, three methods for determining exchange capacity are discussed, and their relationship to the capacity factors of charged solutes is compared. The maximum capacity determined by the titration of the bonded silica was 0.34 meq/gram. The general problems of synthesizing cation-exchangers, measuring their efficiencies and exchange capacities, and evaluating their overall performances are outlined.
