Short-lived halogens

  • Short-lived halogens are produced naturally by phytoplankton and algae found in the oceans.
  • Its major constituents are chlorine, bromine or iodine. Its life span is less than six months.
  • According to a recent study, the oceans contribute 8-10% to the cooling of the planet by emitting short-lived halogens.
  • However, short-lived halogens have a different effect on methane. They increase the lifetime of methane in the atmosphere by dilapidated hydroxyl radicals.
