Effect of nonprecipitating clouds on the aerosol size distribution in the marine boundary layer
Abstract
The size distribution of particles smaller than 0.5 µ m has been measured over the tropical Atlantic and Pacific oceans with a differential mobility analyzer. In regions remote from continental influences the size distribution generally has peaks at about .02‐.03 µ m and at .08‐.15 µ m with a minimum in the .05‐.08 µ m radius range. The data provides strong evidence that nonprecipitating clouds play an important role in transferring material from the gas phase and from smaller particles into the 0.08 to .15 µ m radius range, and that they are responsible for the doubly peaked size distributions frequently observed over the oceans.

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.
