Gas exchange across the air—sea interface

Near Surface Turbulence and Gas Exchange Across the Air-Sea Interface

Heat transfer across the interface between nanoscale solids and gas.

When solid materials and devices scale down in size, heat transfer from the active region to the gas environment becomes increasingly significant. We show that the heat transfer coefficient across the solid-gas interface behaves very differently when the size of the solid is reduced to the nanoscale, such as that of a single nanowire. Unlike for macroscopic solids, the coefficient is strongly p...

Nesting behaviour influences species-specific gas exchange across avian eggshells

Carefully controlled gas exchange across the eggshell is essential for the development of the avian embryo. Water vapour conductance (G(H2O)) across the shell, typically measured as mass loss during incubation, has been demonstrated to optimally ensure the healthy development of the embryo while avoiding desiccation. Accordingly, eggs exposed to sub-optimal gas exchange have reduced hatching su...

Technical Note : The MESSy - submodel AIRSEA calculating the air - sea exchange of chemical species

The new submodel AIRSEA for the Modular Earth Submodel System (MESSy) is presented. It calculates the exchange of chemical species between the ocean and the atmosphere with a focus on organic compounds. The sub-model can be easily extended to a large number of tracers, including highly soluble ones. It is demonstrated that the application of explicitly calculated air-sea exchanges with AIRSEA c...

pH-Dependence and Contributions of The Carbonic Species To Co2 Flux Across The Gas/Liquid Interface

The purpose of this article is to expand the available knowledge on CO2 transfer across the gas/liquid interface in two ways: (1) propose a new mathematical model to describe the pH dependence of CO2 flux across the gas/liquid interface; and (2) propose new relationships that quantitatively describe the contributions of each of the carbonate species ( 3 2CO H , − 3 HCO , and − 2 3 CO ) to total...
