Reply to comment by K.A. Duderstadt et al. on "Atmospheric ionization by high-fluence, hard spectrum solar proton events and their probable appearance in the ice core archive"
Claude M. Laird, Adrian L. Melott, Brian C. Thomas +2
Duderstadt et al. [2016b] comment that the Melott et al. [2016] study of nitrate formation by solar proton events (SPEs) and comparison with the ice core archive is "fundamentally…

Atmospheric ionization by high-fluence, hard spectrum solar proton events and their probable appearance in the ice core archive
Adrian L. Melott, Brian C. Thomas, Claude M. Laird +2
Solar energetic particles ionize the atmosphere, leading to production of nitrogen oxides. It has been suggested that some such events are visible as layers of nitrate in ice cores…
