Do solar winds do anything to strip these pollutants away?
- at_a_remove 7y agoI would not think so. Most of these pollutants are "heavy" and solar winds are only appropriate for the less dense molecules, unfortunately.
- mirimir 7y agoSorry, I neglected to say that they get deposited through precipitation, and incorporated into ecosystems. As I recall, this is mostly about persistent lipophilic organics, some of which are endocrine disruptors. Concentrations are amazingly high in humans (north) and wildlife (north and south).
