TLDR
In this paper, a review of previous estimates of atmospheric sulfur budgets of scales ranging from global down to about 100 km is presented, with particular emphasis on the implied turnover times (i.e. average residence times) for the different sulfur compounds.About:

Factors controlling the acidity of natural rainwater
TL;DR: In this article, the authors suggest that there are integral constraints imposed by (1) the requirement for mass continuity in each elemental cycle and (2) the relative concentrations of soluble species and liquid water in cloudy air; these factors must be mutually consistent.

Sulphur dioxide emissions in Europe 1880–1991 and their effect on sulphur concentrations and depositions
TL;DR: A historical emission inventory for sulphur dioxide has been compiled for Europe covering the period 1880-1991 as mentioned in this paper, showing that combustion of coal was the dominant emission source before World War II in all countries and combustion of liquid fuels thereafter in most.

Identification and assessment of ship emissions and their effects in the harbour of Göteborg, Sweden
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of ship emissions in the urban environment of Goteborg has been studied by multivariate analysis, where simultaneous measurements of relevant gases and sub-micron particles make identification of ship plumes possible.

An atmospheric sulfur budget for eastern North America
TL;DR: In this paper, atmospheric sulfur budgets for the eastern United States, eastern Canada and eastern North America are formulated, based on the fluxes: natural and man-made emissions, wet and dry deposition and atmospheric inflows and outflows.
The stratosphere: Present and future
R. D. Hudson,E. I. Reed +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the three basic elements of stratospheric science-laboratory measurements, atmospheric observations, and theoretical studies are presented along with an attempt to predict, with reasonable confidence, the effect on ozone of particular anthropogenic sources of pollution.

The Sulfur Cycle
TL;DR: The authors' model of the sulfur cycle can draw some conclusions that man is now contributing about one half as much as nature to the total atmospheric burden of sulfur compounds, but by A.D. 2000 he will be contributing about as much, and in the Northern Hemisphere alone he is more than matching nature.

A note on the concepts of age distribution and transit time in natural reservoirs
Bert Bolin,Henning Rodhe +1 more
TL;DR: A brief review of the concepts age distribution, transit time distribution, turnover time, average age and average transit time (residence time) and their relations is given in this article.

The Yearly Circulation of Chloride and Sulfur in Nature; Meteorological, Geochemical and Pedological Implications. Part II
TL;DR: In this paper, the circulation of air borne oceanic constituents is discussed to the extent available data permit, and it is estimated that about 90 per cent of this is precipitated over the oceans, the rest is carried into continents and is brought back to the sea in rivers.

Transport of Lycopodium spores and other small particles to rough surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of surface texture and stickiness was investigated by comparing the catch of particles on segments of real leaves with the catch on similarity shaped segments of PVG treated with adhesive.
