Airborne transport of microbes may play a central role in microbial dispersal, the
maintenance of diversity in aquatic systems and in meteorological processes such as cloud …

Results from analysis of aerosol size distributions measured in a Mediterranean coastal
zone are presented. This paper focuses on aerosol particles smaller than 10 μm because …

Sea salt aerosol (SSA) is a naturally occurring phenomenon that arises from the breaking of
waves and consequent bubble bursting on the ocean's surface. The resulting particles …

The aim of this paper is to determine an accurate formulation for the sea-spray source
function characteristic for the North-Western Mediterranean. To this end, the MACMod …

To assess the properties of aerosol particles generated over the surf zone, two experiments
were held at the pier of Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), La Jolla CA, and at the …

Aerosol particles in coastal areas result from a complex mixing between sea-spray aerosols
locally generated at the sea surface by breaking waves and a continental component arising …

This paper presents a sea spray generation function for aerosols produced by bubbles
bursting that accounts for the effects of fetch. This is achieved by introducing a fetch …

Aerosol particles in coastal areas result from a complex mixing between sea spray aerosols
locally generated at the sea surface by the wind-waves interaction processes and a …

We first deal with sea-spray flux estimates for short fetch conditions in coastal Mediterranean
areas. To this end, a sea-state dependent model for the whitecap fraction was included in …

The present paper deals with the implementation of the Marine Aerosol Concentration
Model (MACMod) in a Mediterranean coastal area. MACMod is a 2D unsteady model …
