Atmospheric Sea-Salt Nuclei Data for Project Shower

Abstract

This report presents, without discussion, extensive data on the distribution of sea-salt nuclei in Hawaii during the field activities of Project Shower. References to studies and digests of similar data from this region are given. It is pointed out that one of the major purposes of obtaining these data, simultaneously with the other data presented in this volume, was to test an hypothesis of raindrop formation by tracing the salts in the nuclei to the salts in solution in the raindrops. The reader is invited to use these data for this or other purposes.
