Hi Aron, it is Gigi. I took part to some measurements on our tower about one year ago. I mean measurements of wind, wave sand aerosol concentration. I do not have the aerosol data. I know a paper is on its way, but the experts are [email protected] and most of all Jacques Piazzola, France, who is the one who brought the aerosol instruments on board. You better ask Elisa who will probably turn your question to Jacques (I do not have his e-mail address here). In any case there is still a lot of parametrization in this field.

Cheers, Gigi

Hello Aron and Gigi,

I know Jacques,  yes, he kows a lot about aerosol concentration above sea-waves.

His mail is : [email protected]
