北大西洋气溶胶和海洋生态系统研究（NAAMES）是一项跨学科的研究，旨在提高对地球海洋生态系统-气溶胶-云系统的认识。NAAMES的具体总体科学目标是：（1）描述年周期初级阶段浮游生物生态系统的特征及其对环境强迫的依赖性，（2）确定这些阶段如何相互作用，以每年重新创建年度浮游生物水华的条件，以及（3）解决远程海洋气溶胶和边界层云如何受到浮游生物生态系统的影响。2015年11月至2018年4月期间，在西亚北极大西洋进行了四次NAAMES实地活动，每次活动都针对年度浮游生物周期中的特定季节性事件。在每次活动中收集了各种各样的测量数据，包括船舶、飞机、自主浮标和漂流器以及卫星观测数据。在这里，我们提出了NAAMES的科学动机，实验设计和测量的概述。然后，我们简要描述了四个实地活动中的每一个的条件和成就，并提供了如何访问NAAMES数据的信息。这份手稿的目的是让广大的科学界熟悉NAAMES，并为即将出版的出版物提供该项目的共同参考概述。
The North Atlantic Aerosols and Marine Ecosystems Study (NAAMES) is an interdisciplinary investigation to improve understanding of Earth's ocean ecosystem-aerosol-cloud system. Specific overarching science objectives for NAAMES are to (1) characterize plankton ecosystem properties during primary phases of the annual cycle and their dependence on environmental forcings, (2) determine how these phases interact to recreate each year the conditions for an annual plankton bloom, and (3) resolve how remote marine aerosols and boundary layer clouds are influenced by plankton ecosystems. Four NAAMES field campaigns were conducted in the western subarctic Atlantic between November 2015 and April 2018, with each campaign targeting specific seasonal events in the annual plankton cycle. A broad diversity of measurements were collected during each campaign, including ship, aircraft, autonomous float and drifter, and satellite observations. Here, we present an overview of NAAMES science motives, experimental design, and measurements. We then briefly describe conditions and accomplishments during each of the four field campaigns and provide information on how to access NAAMES data. The intent of this manuscript is to familiarize the broad scientific community with NAAMES and to provide a common reference overview of the project for upcoming publications.
