Hi! I'm a student from Austria and to graduate in Austria we need to write a so-called "pre-scientific" thesis. I chose to write about Dimethylsulfide and possible impacts on the climate (mainly analysing the CLAW hypothesis) and in the course of my research on this topic I have encountered a few publications that have evaluated several specific processes and substances in the Marine Boundary Layer and taken implications for CLAW out of those results (e.g. Quinn and Bates 2011). Since I am no expert in meteorology or any subject concerning the atmosphere for that matter, I was wondering if somebody could explain to me what the connection between the MBL and the rest of the atmosphere is and how significant this connection is. (Would be awesome if someone could recommend me some studies and publications concerning this topic!) Thank you for your answers!

I live by the beach in LA. Often the weather is gorgeous a mile away from the coast, but down on the actual beach it's cold and windy. (We call it June Gloom.) Usually we head down to the beach unsure if it will be freezing, and if so, we hope that the marine layer burns off and it turns nice. Are there any publicly available sites or resources I could use to find out if the beach is nice at the moment? How about to predict if the marine layer will burn off (or come late)? We are close to LAX airport, so there seems to be lots of weather info for our area but I haven't been able to figure this out. There are even web cameras that we can use to see the beach, but often it's hard to tell since its still sunny, but hazy and the cameras are wide angle and not great quality. If there aren't any resources, I was thinking I could install some sensors down there (I have friends with houses down there), but not sure what would be required. Would appreciate any and all help and advice!
