Concept information
Preferred term
sea spray aerosol
Definition(s)
- Aerosol particles formed from the ocean, mostly by ejection into Earth's atmosphere by bursting bubbles at the air-sea interface. Sea spray contains both organic matter and inorganic salts that form sea salt aerosol (SSA). SSA has the ability to form cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and remove anthropogenic aerosol pollutants from the atmosphere. Also, coarse sea spray inhibits lightning. (Source: Wikipedia)
