Arctic Sea Ice Melting Controls Sea Spray Aerosol Production.
Article in Environmental science & technology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The loss of Arctic Sea ice enlarges the ocean water surface exposed to wind speed, increasing the emissions of sea spray aerosols (SSAs). Given the unique evolution of upper ocean salinity waters and ice-associated ecosystems, it is crucial to improve Arctic-specific SSA parametrizations to represent the currently poorly understood feedback processes. Here, by using Arctic ship-borne in situ aerosol tank laboratory experiments, we study SSA produced from open ocean, open leads, and melt ponds. We find a complex nonlinear, yet unresolved variation in SSA production associated with salinity and organic composition. Specifically, we find that melt ponds drastically reduce SSA production, whereas ice algal microgels may enhance it. During the summer 2017 cruise (research vessel Araon), we also carried out aerosol ambient measurements across the Chukchi and East Siberian Seas. Size resolved ambient particle number concentrations reveal at least 17% and 42% of ambient number aerosol concentrations (N
