Characterization of airborne bacteria and fungi at a land-sea transition site in Southern China.

Airborne microbe can have impact on regional to global climate as ice nuclei and cloud condensation nuclei. In coastal region, microbial aerosols are simultaneously contributed by terrestrial and marine sources under the influence of land-sea air exchange. We present a study on the characteristics of airborne bacteria and fungi, including their concentrations and communities, at a land-sea transition site in Southern China from December 2019 to December 2020.
