We intensively surveyed the concentrations of chemical species in aerosols and gases using a four-stage filter-pack method at a site in Japan facing the Sea of Japan in winter with 6-h sample intervals. A few chloride species emitted anthropogenically were detected, and the HCl (g) concentration was quite low. The number of chloride species artifacts was also low. The HNO₃ (g) concentration was significantly higher when the monitored air mass passed over the Korean Peninsula compared to when it did not pass over the Korean Peninsula. In addition, the HNO₃ (g) concentration was significantly higher when the air mass arrived at the monitoring site by passing the route at lower latitude than the latitude of the monitoring site. On the other hand, the SO₂ (g) concentration showed no change between various trajectories of the air mass. The [Formula: see text] (p)/non-seasalt- (nss-) [Formula: see text] (p) ratio was intermediate between the compositions of (NH₄)₂SO₄ and NH₄HSO₄ when the air mass passed over the Korean Peninsula, whereas it was intermediate between NH₄HSO₄ and H₂SO₄ when the air mass did not pass over the Korean Peninsula. We detected the transboundary transport of sulfur dioxide with high time-resolution monitoring at two separate monitoring points: the current monitoring site and Oki Island.
