The Influence of Air‐Sea Fluxes on Atmospheric Aerosols During the Summer Monsoon Over the Tropical Indian Ocean

Abstract: During the summer monsoon, the western tropical Indian Ocean is predicted to be a hot spot for dimethylsulfide emissions, the major marine sulfur source to the atmosphere, and an important aerosol precursor. Other aerosol relevant fluxes, such as isoprene and sea spray, should also be enhanced, due to the steady strong winds during the monsoon. Marine air masses dominate the area during the summer monsoon, excluding the influence of continentally derived pollutants. During the SO234‐2/235 cruise in the western… Show more

“…Correlation of MSAM with DMSO2 during the second leg in the Arabian Sea.associated with upwelling in the Gulf of Aden were reported(Warneke and de Gouw, 2001). More recent measurements during a ship cruise in July and August 2018 in the western tropical Indian Ocean reported values of up to 0.3 ppb DMS(Zavarsky et al, 2018). The DMS measurements presented here are therefore consistent with the very limited previous measurements in this region.…”

“…The local coupling of air-sea fluxes and the formation of aerosols and clouds over the ocean is still highly uncertain. The study combined directly measured air-sea fluxes with satellite aerosol remote sensing was done by [19]. It is a novel, interdisciplinary approach where results from air-sea gas transfer are combined with atmospheric chemistry satellite remote sensing using meteorological transport models.…”
