Air-Water Gas Transfer in Coastal Waters

Abstract

The long-range objective of this project is the physical parameterization of the air-sea gas transfer rate. In order to accomplish this goal, novel experimental techniques and instrumentation have been developed for in situ measurements of the gas transfer rate and the processes and parameters controlling it. These instruments were deployed during field experiments to investigate the mechanisms of air-water gas transfer.
