英文摘要 | Sea salt aerosols were assumed to be homogeneous spheres in most climate models. However, observations show that sea salt particles are inhomogeneous during the deliquesce and crystallization processes. Using a two-layer sphere model, we found that backscattering of solar radiation associated with sea salts is underestimated in homogeneous sea salt models. The Community Earth System Model is used to assess the inhomogeneity effect on direct radiative forcing. For global climate model simulation, the inhomogeneity effect on radiative transfer is found to be small as high RHs over widespread oceans suppress the impact of inhomogeneity. On the other hand, in coastal regions, the inhomogeneity effect can cause up to 10% radiative forcing difference of sea salt aerosols. The inhomogeneity effect of sea salt aerosols has to be considered over coastal regions, especially in the Mediterranean, Australia, and the eastern coast of South America. Plain Language Summary In a humid environment, solid sea salt particles can be coated with water. Sea salt aerosol has a cooling effect on the Earth, but coated sea salt has even stronger cooling effect. However, in most climate models, coated sea salt is not considered. This study confirms that coated sea salt aerosols may not significantly affect the global radiation budget, but they should definitely be considered in the coastal climate where large changes in relative humidity are evident. |
