An assessment of the effect of sea surface surfactant on global atmosphere‐ocean CO2 flux

Abstract: [1] We assess the possible impact of the distribution of naturally occurring surfactants on the direct integration of the global atmosphere-ocean CO 2 flux across the ocean surface. The global atmosphere-ocean CO 2 flux is calculated using the monthly mean ÁpCO 2 climatology compiled by Takahashi et al. [1997] as well as satellite wind speed and seasurface temperature data. In the absence of any global map of surfactant coverage and as it is known that phytoplankton exudates and degradation products are the ma… Show more

“…Goldman et al, 1988), especially in the Kara Sea given its large terrestrial freshwater supply. Although there are currently no data on the occurrence of biological surfactant in Arctic waters, there have previously been attempts to use EO data to infer open ocean distributions of surfactant (Liu et al, 2000;Lin et al, 2002) and the implications for gas exchange (Tsai and Liu, 2003). The latter authors used pCO 2 climatologies and EO derived estimates of U 10 , sea surface temperature and chlorophyll a to infer surfactant control on global air-sea CO 2 exchange.…”

“…Results from studies of surfactants in the sea surface microlayer suggest that this interfacial layer covers the ocean to a significant extent and thus has a global impact on air-to-sea fluxes [Wurl et al, 2010;Tsai and Lui, 2003]. For reviews of the current knowledge of these features and past work we refer to the literature [Liss and Duce, 1997;Gladyshev, 2002;Gade et al, 2006].…”

“…Nonetheless progress has been steady -contrast the reviews by Liss (1975) and then Liss et al (1997) as an instructive set of examples. Highlights during this period of growth in the laboratory and seagoing effort have included the elucidation of bubble surface chemistry (Blanchard 1975(Blanchard , 1989, recognition of the importance of polymeric colloidal/gel processing (Wells and Goldberg 1993;Chin et al 1998), and transfer effects of films on sea-air gas fluxes (Frew et al 1990;Tsai and Liu 2003).…”
