Short summary
Emissions from shipping have an impact on air quality, especially in coastal areas. We have measured properties of the airborne particles in several plumes from ships that are sailing within an Emission Control Area. Individual ships showed large variability in contribution to total particle mass and nitrogen dioxide. Organics and sulfate dominated the particle mass, and most plumes contained very little or no soot. We also present recommendations for future stationary ship plume measurements.
