Research Abstract |
Under the Western Pacific Air-Sea interaction Study (W-PASS), we developed new analytical methods, conducted shipboard measurements, and simulated global transport of terrestrial aerosols. Possible phytoplankton bloom over the sea caused by deposition of mineral particles contained iron was observed in the North Pacific. Most of nitrogen and carbon in marine aerosol over the western North Pacific existed as organic forms and clarified to be marine origin. Dust particles emitted from Asian deserts were found to travel more than 1.5 times around the globe.
