Accurately assessing the dry deposition fluxes of inorganic nitrogen aerosol (aerosol-IN) is crucial for mitigating the ecological damage caused by excessive nitrogen in oceanic equilibria. We developed a dry deposition model to assess the dry deposition fluxes of aerosol-IN into Chinese offshore areas over a decade, with the range of 2.81 × 10-1.

In this study, a high-resolution aerosol observation system was employed to measure the concentration and size of aerosols in the floating ice region and seawater region of the Arctic Ocean during the 8th and 9th Chinese Arctic Expedition Research Cruise. The identification of aerosol sources was conducted using a modified positive definite matrix factorization method and a backward air mass trajectory model.
