TLDR
In this article, the basic equations governing air-sea gas exchange are given, then a review of some models proposed to describe the gas transfer process is given, and experimental approaches through both laboratory (principally using wind/water tunnels) and field measurements are summarized.Abstract:
In this chapter we attempt to present a brief introduction to the subject of air-sea gas exchange First the basic equations governing such exchange are given, then a review of some models proposed to describe the gas transfer process Following this, experimental approaches through both laboratory (principally using wind/water tunnels) and field measurements are summarised Finally, we present what seems to us to be the best current synthesis of the wind tunnel and field results for the prediction of gas exchange rates across the sea surfaceread more

Dimethyl sulfide: Less important than long-range transport as a source of sulfate to the remote tropical Pacific marine boundary layer
TL;DR: In this article, the Eulerian budget of the Pacific Atmospheric Sulfur Experiment (PASE) was calculated based on observations of chemical concentrations from the NCAR C-130 in relatively dry, subsiding regions of the tropical Pacific.

Processing of Organic Contaminants in Lakes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the lifetime of toxic organic compounds in lakes and the rate of chemical removal processes compared to the amount of input and recycling in a lake ecosystem, and the net residence time of toxic chemicals in the lake ecosystem.

Yue Liu,Yue Liu,Chun-Ying Liu,Chun-Ying Liu,Gui-Peng Yang,Gui-Peng Yang,Hong-Hai Zhang,Hong-Hai Zhang,Sheng-Hui Zhang,Sheng-Hui Zhang +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the spatiotemporal distributions of DMS and its related compounds, i.e., dimethylsulfide (DMS) and acrylic acid (AA), and the influencing factors in the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea during autumn.

A Rumsfeldian analysis of uncertainty in air-sea gas exchange
TL;DR: In this article, a qualitative analysis is applied to classify the degree of knowledge about uncertainties in air-sea gas exchange, and a table summarizing the uncertainties we can identify and their "Rumsfeldian classification" is presented.

Gas exchange rates between air and sea
TL;DR: In this article, the average film thickness for the world ocean based on the distribution of natural radiocarbon, bomb-produced radioccarbon, and radon are in good agreement, and Radon data from the BOMEX area and from station PAPA lend support to Kanwisher's suggestion that gas exchange rates should vary in proportion to the square of the wind velocity.

Vollständige Darstellung der turbulenten Geschwindigkeitsverteilung in glatten Leitungen
TL;DR: From experimental investigations of turbulent exchange of momentum a formula is derived for the velocity of turbulent flow in tubes and pipes in this paper, which gives a complete representation of the velocity distribution, i. e. it holds good close to the wall as well as in the core of the flow.
