  • Abstract
    Measurements at McMurdo Station, Antarctica demonstrate that the combustion of light-weight fuel oil (AN-8) at the station is not a significant source of vanadium in ambient aerosols there. It is concluded by inference that the elevated levels of vanadium found previously at Dye 3, Greenland, where diesel fuel arctic (DFA) was used for power generation and surface vehicles, were due to aerosol transport from North America, not contamination from local sources.
