Abstract
Using glancing-angle laser-induced fluorescence (GALIF) spectroscopy as a probe, the partitioning of naphthalene, fluoranthene, pyrene, umbelliferone, phenol red, and bisphenol A from bulk solution to the air-water interface was examined in both pure water and aqueous solutions of 6 mM octanol. Previous studies provided similar Langmuir adsorption isotherms for anthracene and imidazole 2-carboxaldehyde. The surface partitioning behaviour of each compound in both environments was well described using a Langmuir adsorption model; partitioning coefficients were derived from the fits to such isotherms. Only the PAH molecules, naphthalene, fluoranthene and pyrene, saw an enhancement in the surface partitioning in octanol solution compared to pure water. The surface partitioning to pure water surfaces could be fairly well described using a one parameter linear free energy relationship based on either solubility or KOW.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 878:163203.

Abstract
Iodine deficiency can cause thyroid disease, a serious health problem that has been affecting humans since several years. The biofortification of plants with iodine is an effective strategy for regulating iodine content in humans. In addition, radioiodine released into the atmosphere may contaminate terrestrial ecosystem along with dry or wet deposition and its accumulation in plants may cause exposure risks to humans via food chain. Recent progress in understanding the mechanisms related to iodine uptake, elementary speciation, dynamic transportation, nutritional role, and toxicity in plants is reviewed here. First, we introduced the iodine cycle in a marine-atmosphere-land system. The content and speciation of iodine in plants under natural conditions and biofortification backgrounds were also analyzed. We then discussed the mechanisms of iodine uptake and efflux by plants. The promotion or inhibition effects of iodine on plant growth were also investigated. Finally, the participation of radioiodine in plant growth and its safety risks along the food chain were evaluated. Furthermore, future challenges and opportunities for understanding the participation of iodine in plants have been outlined.

Abstract
The heterogeneous reaction of ozone and iodide is both an important source of atmospheric iodine and dry deposition pathway of ozone in marine environments. While the iodine generated from this reaction is primarily in the form of HOI and I2, there is also evidence of volatile organoiodide compound emissions in the presence of organics without biological activity occuring [M. Martino, G. P. Mills, J. Woeltjen and P. S. Liss, A new source of volatile organoiodine compounds in surface seawater, Geophys. Res. Lett., 2009, 36, L01609, L. Tinel, T. J. Adams, L. D. J. Hollis, A. J. M. Bridger, R. J. Chance, M. W. Ward, S. M. Ball and L. J. Carpenter, Influence of the Sea Surface Microlayer on Oceanic Iodine Emissions, Environ. Sci. Technol., 2020, 54, 13228-13237]. In this study, we evaluate our fundamental understanding of the ozonolysis of iodide which leads to gas-phase iodine emissions. To do this, we compare experimental measurements of ozone-driven gas-phase I2 formation in a flow tube to predictions made with the kinetic multilayer model for surface and bulk chemistry (KM-SUB). The KM-SUB model uses literature rate coefficients used in current atmospheric chemistry models to predict I2(g) formation in pH-buffered solutions of marine composition containing chloride, bromide, and iodide compared to solutions containing only iodide. Experimentally, I2(g) formation was found to be suppressed in solutions containing seawater levels of chloride compared to solutions containing only iodide, but the model does not predict this effect using literature rate constants. However, the model is able to predict this trend upon adjustment of two specific reaction rate constants. To more closely represent true oceanic conditions, we add an organic component to the proxy seawater solutions using material generated from Thalassiosira pseudonana phytoplankton cultures. Whereas the rate of ozone deposition is unaffected, the formation rate of I2(g) is strongly suppressed in the presence of biological organic material, indicative of a sink or reduction of reactive iodine formed during the oxidation process.

Abstract
A complete protocol is presented for the speciation analysis of 129I for both inorganic and organic iodine in seawater using coprecipitation and solid-phase extraction (SPE) combined with accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). By modifying the iodide separation process and adding a crossover removal step, the improved coprecipitation method significantly reduces the cross-contamination of iodide and iodate to less than 0.05% in the speciation analysis of inorganic 129I, with the separation efficiencies of about 95% and 93% for iodide and iodate, respectively. The SPE-DOI method for the dissolved organic 129I (DO129I) analysis was developed, whereby we report the first direct observation of DO129I/DO127I atom ratios in seawater in this paper. 129I species in seawater from Tokyo Bay were analysed. The 129I results demonstrated that our protocol for speciation analysis of 129I is reliable and provided new insights into understanding the iodine cycle.

Abstract
The reactive iodine species may exhibit significant impacts on many global atmospheric issues and the I•/I2•- radicals play key roles for inducing the formation of these reactive iodine species. However, the current understanding on the formation of I•/I2•- radicals in atmospheric aqueous aerosol is still quite limited. The results reported herein suggest that I•/I2•- can be produced simultaneously in aqueous aerosol by several sunlight-driven photochemical pathways including direct photo-dissociation of soluble organic iodine (SOI) at rates of 0.10-1.34 × 10-9 M ns-1 and 0.99-5.68 × 10-7 M μs-1, •OH-mediated oxidation of I- at 0.03-1.41 × 10-8 M ns-1 and 0.05-4.10 × 10-6 M μs-1, and 3DOM⁎-induced oxidation of I- at 1.57-1.65 × 10-9 M ns-1 and 0.99-5.68 × 10-7 M μs-1 for generation of I• and I2•-, respectively. Meanwhile, the pathway of eaq--initiated stepwise reduction of IO3- to I2(aq) and further photolyzed into I• plays negligible role in formation of I•/I2•- due to the low reaction rates and severe quenching effect of eaq- by dissolved O2. Our work presented the new data on mechanism and kinetics for comprehensive elucidation of I•/I2•- formation in coastal atmospheric aqueous aerosol and would help to better understand the transformation mechanism of iodine species, pathways of iodine cycling and the associated environmental impacts involving atmospheric reactive iodine radicals.

Abstract
Iodine is a critical trace element involved in many diverse and important processes in the Earth system. The importance of iodine for human health has been known for over a century, with low iodine in the diet being linked to goitre, cretinism and neonatal death. Research over the last few decades has shown that iodine has significant impacts on tropospheric photochemistry, ultimately impacting climate by reducing the radiative forcing of ozone (O3) and air quality by reducing extreme O3 concentrations in polluted regions. Iodine is naturally present in the ocean, predominantly as aqueous iodide and iodate. The rapid reaction of sea-surface iodide with O3 is believed to be the largest single source of gaseous iodine to the atmosphere. Due to increased anthropogenic O3, this release of iodine is believed to have increased dramatically over the twentieth century, by as much as a factor of 3. Uncertainties in the marine iodine distribution and global cycle are, however, major constraints in the effective prediction of how the emissions of iodine and its biogeochemical cycle may change in the future or have changed in the past. Here, we present a synthesis of recent results by our team and others which bring a fresh perspective to understanding the global iodine biogeochemical cycle. In particular, we suggest that future climate-induced oceanographic changes could result in a significant change in aqueous iodide concentrations in the surface ocean, with implications for atmospheric air quality and climate.
