An experiment is described in which cloud droplets are sampled as a function of their size using a counterflow virtual impactor, thereby revealing the degree to which the different sized droplets in a cloud are chemically different. The chief result is that the larger droplets sampled from a marine stratus cloud had a solute mass concentration that was a factor of 3 greater than in the smaller droplets. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1988
