Garbe C.S. et al Transport at the Air-Sea Interface Measurements, Models and Parametrizations

Berlin: Springer, 2007. — 320 p.In order to bridge the gap between current models and measurements, as well as spark new ideas for novel simulation and experimental efforts, an International Workshop on Transport at the Air Sea Interface was organized by the editors of this volume. The focus of the workshop was on small scale processes directly at the interface. The workshop took place at the University of Heidelberg from September 6–8, 2006. Leading scientist from around the world came together and focused on different aspects of the transport across the air-water interface. The current state of the art of research was presented and current and future research interests and problems were discussed. The program of the workshop is listed after this preface. This volume contains peer reviewed, extended and updated versions of selected talks that also reflect the discussions during the workshop. The editors cordially thank all reviewers for their detailed responses and their efforts to improve the quality of the papers.
