摘要

摘要: The global distributions of the air-sea CO₂ transfer velocity and flux are retrieved from TOPEX/Poseidon and Jason altimeter data from October 1992 to December 2009 using a combined algorithm.The 17 a average global,area-weighted,Schmidt number-corrected mean gas transfer velocity is 21.26 cm/h,and the full exploration of the uncertainty of this estimate awaits further data.The average total CO₂ flux(calculated by carbon)from atmosphere to ocean during the 17 a was 2.58 Pg/a.The highest transfer velocity is in the circumpolar current area,because of constant high wind speeds and currents there.This results in strong CO₂ fluxes.CO₂ fluxes are strong but opposite direction in the equatorial east Pacific Ocean,because the air-sea CO₂ partial pressure difference is the largest in the global oceans.The results differ from the previous studies calculated using the wind speed.It is demonstrated that the air-sea transfer velocity is very important for estimating air-sea CO₂ flux.It is critical to have an accurate estimation for improving calculation of CO₂ flux within climate change studies.
