ONRL Workshop Proceedings - Role of Surfactant Films on the Interfacial Properties of the Sea Surface Held in London on 9-11 April 1986.

Abstract

This report contains the proceedings of a workshop held in London, UK, to address the effects of the marine microlayer on the microwave signature of the sea surface. Twelve papers present biological, chemical, and physical aspects of the problem, ranging from attempts to describe the nature of the layer to its effect on electromagnetic energy. Three working group reports (on surface film chemistry, microlayer dynamics, and remote sensing) complete this document. Keywords: Surface films; Organic films; Marine microlayer; Remote sensing; Capillary waves, Monomolecular films.
