Sea spray spume droplets modulate heat and moisture fluxes between the ocean and atmosphere. These fluxes are a major source of uncertainty in extreme weather forecasting models due to a lack of reliable field measurement techniques. This project aims to develop a novel measurement technique to measure sea spray and generate new knowledge on the magnitude and nature of sea spray spume production. Expected outcomes include novel tools, a baseline dataset of sea spray field observations and predictive capabilities. Providing critical information to forecast extreme weather and tropical cyclones, this research will improve accuracy of coastal weather hazard prediction providing many social and economic benefits for Australia and other nations.

海洋喷雾泡沫液滴调节海洋和大气之间的热量和水分通量。由于缺乏可靠的实地测量技术，这些通量是极端天气预报模型不确定性的主要来源。该项目旨在开发一种新的测量技术，以测量海水喷雾，并产生关于海水喷雾产生的规模和性质的新知识。预期成果包括新的工具，一个基线数据集的海上喷雾实地观察和预测能力。这项研究为极端天气和热带气旋预报提供了关键信息，将提高沿海天气灾害预测的准确性，为澳大利亚和其他国家提供许多社会和经济效益。
