Source Strength and Scattering Properties of Organic Marine Aerosols

Abstract

My long term goal is to quantify the role played by sea salt in radiative scattering in the marine environment. This project studies the number of aerosol particles produced from sea salt under different marine conditions. Studying the chemical composition of those particles provides important information about their behavior in the atmosphere.
