Short summary
In the present paper, we quantify sea-to-air emission fluxes of aerosol to the atmosphere and characterize their physical and chemical properties as a function of the seawater biochemical and physical properties. Fluxes are evaluated with an original approach, a "lab in the field" experiment that preserves the seawater and atmospheric complexity while isolating air-to-sea exchanges from their surroundings. We show different features of the aerosol emission fluxes compared to previous findings.
