Modeling sea-salt aerosol in a coupled climate and sectional microphysical model: mass, optical depth and number concentration

Sea-salt aerosol mass, optical depth, and number concentration over the global oceans have significant implications for aerosol direct and indirect climate effects. We model sea-salt aerosol in a coupled climate and sectional microphysical model, CAM/CARMA, with aerosol dynamics including sea-salt e...
