• Concept: Change from windspeed-driven parameterizations to scaling models based on physics of the processes

Background On Flux – Transfer Velocity Relationships
• The flux, Fx, of trace gases between
the atmosphere and ocean:
• Xw=concentration in the water, Xa=concentration in air
• r subscript reference height/depth zr
• s subscript at interface
• kx=transfer velocity for X
• More general form of k includes water-side and air-side transfer processes expressed as RESISTANCES, R
• Gases reactive in water
– ‘Chemical enhancement factor β
– If enhancement is large, transfer velocity usually called deposition velocity

Source term in flux form
Near the surface we can use an eddy diffusion representation of turbulent flux
Total Flux=Sum of transport and reaction/source effects
In dynamic equilibrium Fx is independent of z
If Sx=0, we can relate the flux to the change in X from the surface, s, to some reference height/depth in the fluid, z=zr

COARE MODEL HISTORY• 1996 Bulk Meteorological fluxes (ku=u*Cd)
– Update 2003 (8000 eddy covariance obs)– Oceanic cool skin module – molecular sublayer
• 2000 CO2• 2004 DMS• 2006 Ozone

Air-Sea transfer coefficients as a function of wind speed: latent heat flux (upper panel) and momentum flux (lower panel). The red line is the COARE algorithm version 3.0; the circles are the average of direct flux measurements from 12 ETL cruises (1990-1999); the dashed line the original NCEP model.

• Produce new version for use with wave parameters
• Tune it to wind-speed version
• Observations? Ozone cruises, SOLAS, GASEX III
