Contributions to Southern Ocean cloud condensation nuclei inferred from water uptake and volatility

Seasonal variations in cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and cloud droplet number concentrations associated with biological activity have been observed over the Southern Ocean and have been linked to non-sea salt (nss) sulfate and organic aerosol concentrations. Observational campaigns over the sparse...

Description
Summary:Seasonal variations in cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and cloud droplet number concentrations associated with biological activity have been observed over the Southern Ocean and have been linked to non-sea salt (nss) sulfate and organic aerosol concentrations. Observational campaigns over the sparsely observed Southern Ocean are important to quantify nss-sulfate and sea spray aerosol (SSA) sources and reduce the uncertainty in aerosol cloud interactions.
