Abstract:
In a series of measurements of CO 2 flux over the sea the mean flux was near zero, even though the surface water had substantially higher partial pressure of CO 2 than the air. Hourly variations in wind speed were well correlated with the flux, suggesting that a wind‐driven process, such as wave breaking and downward mixing of bubbles, may drive additional CO 2 into the water as the wind speed increases. The traditional model of air‐sea gas flux as a function of sea‐air partial pressure difference was modified to include downward pumping by wind. We conclude that the flux of nonatmospheric gases such as radon does not serve as a complete model for the two‐way surface flux of atmospheric constituents such as CO 2 .
