Prokaryotic abundance and 16S rRNA gene sequences detected in marine aerosols on the East Sea (Korea)

Abstract Modern studies on marine airborne prokaryotes over open seas have been rare. Here, to understand their distribution and composition, aerosol as well as surface seawater samples were collected at three sites in the East Sea. The abundance of airborne prokaryotes was 0.7–1.2 × 105 cells m−3....
