[{"name":"zinke-2023-mesocosm-azores-1","title":"Measurements of bioaerosols, bacteria and ionic composition in sea spray aerosols from mesocosm experiments in the Azores","summary":"Measurements of bioaerosols, bacteria and ionic composition in sea spray aerosols from 20 chamber mesocosm experiments with seawater.\r\n\r\nThe measurements include bacteria enumeration and ionic composition. The bacteria cell counts from aerosol filters and seawater samples were obtained from fluorescence microscopy of 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) stained cells. The ionic composition were obtained from ion chromatography of the chamber aerosol and seawater samples are provided. The data further comprises concentration estimates of coarse particles, fluorescent particles and primary biological aerosol particles (PBAP) obtained from multiparameter bioaerosol spectrometer (MBS) measurements as well as size-resolved normalised frequency estimates of PBAP and bacterial cell counts in the aerosol and in the seawater.\r\n\r\nThe data is used to investigate the emissions of primary biological particles and bacteria with sea spray aerosols.\r\n\r\nThe seawater was sampled from the coast of Graciosa island in the Azores archipelago between 2 June and 14 July, 2022.","citations":"","comments":"","category":"Atmosphere","subcategory":"Aerosols","keywords":"Primary biological aerosols; Bacteria abundance; Sea spray aerosols; Ionic composition; Mesocsom study; ","scientist":"Julika Zinke, Gabriel Freitas, Matthew E.
