A parameterization of sea‐salt aerosol source function for sub‐ and super‐micron particles
Open accessAbstract
A parameterization of a sea‐salt source function for both sub‐ and super‐micron particles was developed based on the semi‐empirical formulation of Monahan et al. [1986]. This new parameterization extends the range of Monahan's equation to below 0.2 μm in diameter where it has been found to overestimate submicron sea‐salt aerosols, especially the sea‐salt number concentrations. The new parameterization was used in a one‐dimensional (1‐D) column model to predict the number size distributions and compared with reasonable agreement to the observed distributions at various wind speeds reported by O'Dowd et al. [1997]. A global 3‐D sea‐salt simulation with this parameterization was also made and a much better dependence of sea‐salt on surface wind speed was predicted than other schemes compared to observations. For an indirect impact assessment of sea‐salt aerosols on climate where submicron particles may have a dominant contribution to aerosol‐cloud interactions, this scheme provides the most realistic number flux of sea‐salt particles between ocean and atmosphere.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
