SEA SALT AEROSOL PRODUCTION: MECHANISMS, METHODS, MEASUREMENTS, AND MODELS: A CRITICAL REVIEW

摘要

The impetus behind Sea Salt Aerosol Production was the authors' desire to accurately represent the production flux of sea salt aerosol (SSA) particles as a function of particle size and controlling factors in chemical transport models used to examinethe influence of aerosols on climate. In their research to develop the size-dependent production flux, they concluded that "SSA production is far less well understood than is indicated by much of the modeling community and indeed than appears to be appreciated by some investigators, who maybe familiar with only a portion of the relevant literature."
