Free troposphere as a major source of CCN for the equatorial pacific boundary layer: long-range transport and teleconnections

Figure 3 shows the comparison between the global distribution of the dominant PFTs (i.e., Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, nanoeucaryotes and diatoms) obtained with OCTS (November

We measured the number concentrations of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and the size distributions of CCN/CN (CN: condensation nuclei) ratios at supersaturations.. ( SS s) of

Simulated aerosol size distributions are in reasonable agreement with obser- vations in the marine boundary layer and in the free troposphere, while the model underestimates

Most of the trajectories that reached the boundary layer travelled from the Western Pacific, ∼ 20–40 ◦ E of Borneo, suggesting that measurements of VSLS in the TTL over Borneo might
