Extract

A Sea-Breeze is salt-laden in varying degree. On a fine dry day it may contain as much as 22 milligrams of salt per cubic metre of air (Armand Gautier, Bull. Soc. Chim., 1899 [iii], 21, 391–392). This invisible salt is washed out of the atmosphere by rains, and finds its way back to the sea.
