Physicochemical and Optical Characterization of Aerosol Fields from Coastal Breaking Waves

Abstract

Our intent is to establish an improved understanding of the properties and factors that control the physicochemistry of marine aerosol and the implications for the optical properties of the marine aerosol in a coastal environment. These include issues related to the source, transformation and evolution of marine aerosol physicochemistry including sulfate but with particular interest in sea-salt from breaking waves.
