The size distribution of aerosol arriving at the South Pole was measured several times during four days of relatively homogeneous meteorological transport conditions. This aerosol had a maximum number concentration in the 0.000001-0.000008 cm radius range, and a maximum volume concentration in the 0.00002-0.0002 cm radius range, a total number concentration of 106/cu cm and a total volume concentration of 0.000001 cu cm/cu m. Almost all particles of r approximately equal to 0.00015 cm were hygroscopic, with refractive index near 1.54. This aerosol represents the background aerosol which occurs at the end point of a long series of meteorological precipitation processes.
