Sea salt aerosol refers to tiny particles or droplets that originate from the ocean and are composed primarily of salt, mainly sodium chloride (NaCl), along with a mix of other compounds such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium salts. These aerosols are created through various processes, primarily the breaking of ocean waves which generates bubbles that burst at the surface, releasing salt particles into the atmosphere. Sea salt aerosols play a significant role in the Earth's climate and atmospheric chemistry.
