Abstract
During the 12-month-long period covered by this report, i.e. in the 1 October 1984 - 30 September interval, all facets of the Whitecap Project progressed apace. The field work during this year included both international and local measurement programmes. Data were obtained in the North Sea during the HEXOS Meetpost Noordwijk experiment, and along the west coast of Ireland, aboard the LOUGH BELTRA and at the Gort na gCapall field station on Inishmore. The effect of changes in water temperature on the aerosol productivity of whitecaps was investigated using the whitecap simulation tank. A detailed study of the production of condensation nuclei by whitecaps was carried out in this tank in co-operation with a colleague from t he State University of New York at Albany.
