The Marine Aerosol Concentration Model is presented. It is a two-dimensional unsteady model describing the evolution of aerosol concentration in the marine coastal area. It is validated with the help of experimental data measured in the Mediterranean coastal zone. Then, it is used to quantify the effect of the thermal stability on aerosol concentration measured at 10 m height in the MABL.
