Next to tackling the fundamental problem in the representativeness of point measurements of particles and retrieving the surface flux in a turbulent atmosphere, this manuscript provides a general framework to plan sampling strategies for aerosol field campaigns and provides tools to quantify related uncertainties.
Short summary
We use numerical models to study field measurements of sea spray aerosol particles and conclude that both the atmospheric state and the methods of instrument sampling are causes for the variation in the production rate of aerosol particles: a critical metric to learn the aerosol's effect on processes like cloud physics and radiation. This work helps field observers improve their experimental design and interpretation of measurements because of turbulence in the atmosphere.
