Relationship between wind speed and gas exchange over the ocean

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of variability in wind speed on the calculated gas transfer velocities and the possibility of chemical enhancement of CO2 exchange at low wind speeds over the ocean is illustrated using a quadratic dependence of gas exchange on wind speed.

Carbon dioxide in water and seawater: the solubility of a non-ideal gas

TL;DR: In this paper, the solubility coefficients for carbon dioxide in water and seawater are calculated for the data of Murray and Riley, and are fitted to equations in temperature and salinity of the form used previously to fit solubilities of other gases.

Nitrous oxide solubility in water and seawater

TL;DR: In this paper, the solubility of nitrous oxide in pure water and seawater has been measured microgasometrically over the range 0 −40°C and the data have been corrected for nonideality and are fitted to equations in temperature and salinity of the form used previously to fit solubilities of other gases.

Oxygen solubility in seawater : better fitting equations

TL;DR: In this paper, uncertainties associated with the routine computation of O2 solubility (Co*) at 1 atm total pressure in pure water and seawater in equilibrium with air as a function of temperature and salinity were examined.

The Origin and Distribution of Methane in Marine Sediments

TL;DR: Methane has been detected in several cores of rapidly deposited (> 50 m/my) deep sea sediments as discussed by the authors, and the methane originates predominantly from bacterial reduction of CO2, as indicated by complimentary changes with depth in the amount and isotopic composition of redox-linked pore water constituents.

New measurements of oxygen solubility in pure and natural water1

TL;DR: In this paper, an extended series of measurements of oxygen solubility in pure water and dilutions of seawater over the temperature range 0.5 to 35C was made, and the accuracy of the techniques was approximately 0.1%, so the tables appear to be more reliable than those in current use.

The solubility of gases in distilled water and sea water—III. Argon

TL;DR: The solubility of argon in pure water and sea water has been measured over the temperature range 1·05-35°C, and up to a chlorinity of 21·5‰, using the method employed in the earlier parts of this series as discussed by the authors.
