Abstract
A limited number of observations of nitrogen, sodium and chloride in rainwater made in Hawaii are presented. Because of frequent and high rainfall, calculations of the annual amounts of nitrogen received in various Island localities are rather large. In one storm nitrogen was brought down by rainfall at a nearly constant rate although rainfall intensity varied considerably. In general, the concentrations of these elements in Hawaiian rains agree with observations in other oceanic areas.
