Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
Results of emission rate were given in nmol/m2/h:
- Marine subtropical wetlands: 9-600
- Marine temperate wetlands: 19-720
- Freshwater subtropical wetlands: 34-220
- Freshwater temperate wetlands: 0.4-700
- Ocean average: 170-340
Percentage of total regional flux of S gases was attributable to DMS for 58 %
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Dimethyl sulfide is emitted in marine water and freshwater from wetland habitats in the Florida Everglades up to 400 nmol/m2/h
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
