- 376dde0f-a750-4138-91ce-8ca635bf05bd definition "Path = ['OCEAN SALINITY', 'SALINITY/DENSITY', 'OCEANS', 'EARTH SCIENCE', 'Science Keywords'] Sea salt aerosol, which originally comes from sea spray, is one of the most widely distributed natural aerosols. Sea salt aerosols are characterized as non-light-absorbing, highly hygroscopic, and having coarse particle size. Some sea salt dominated aerosols could have a single scattering albedo as large as ~0.97. Due to the hygroscopy, a sea salt particle can serve as a very efficient cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), altering cloud reflectivity, lifetime, and precipitation process. According to the IPCC report, the total sea salt flux from ocean to atmosphere is ~3300 Tg/yr" @default.
