  1. 6. A Study of the Short-term Variability of Seawater pCO2 near Östergarnsholm

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Jennie Persson Söderman; [2014]
    Keywords : coastal upwelling; carbon dioxide; air–sea exchange; Baltic Sea measurements;

    Abstract : In this study, an analysis of upwelling and biological activities impact on the seawater pCO2 variability was done to improve the knowledge about the pCO2 variability in seawater in the Baltic Sea. During upwelling activity, CO2 rich waters are upwelled to the surface. READ MORE

  3. 7. Variability of turbulent fluxes (momentum, heat and CO2) during Upwelling conditions. A case study

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Carlos Román Cascón; [2010]
    Keywords : CO2 fluxes; upwelling; marine boundary layer; turbulent fluxes;

    Abstract : Measurements of turbulent fluxes (momentum, sensible heat, latent heat and CO2) at two different heights were studied from data of a tower at Ostergarnsholm Island (Baltic Sea) during one week, while calculations using bulk formulations of fluxes were done with measurements in the tower and in two buoys moored at different locations. Different behaviors are found for the different fluxes. READ MORE

  4. 8. The Behaviour of the Latent Heat Exchange Coefficient in the Stable Marine Boundary Layer

    University essay from Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Kristina Lindgren; [2008]
    Keywords : Latent heat flux; Sensible heat flux; Exchange coefficient; Neutral exchange coefficient; Turbulent Fluxes; Marine Boundary Layer; Stable Stratification; Air-sea interaction; Dimensionless profile functions; Östergarnsholm;

    Abstract : Knowledge of the turbulent fluxes at the sea surface is important for understanding the interaction between atmosphere and ocean. With better knowledge, improvements in the estimation of the heat exchange coefficients can be made and hence models are able to predict the weather and future climate with higher accuracy.

  5. 9. CO2-Variation over the Baltic Sea

    University essay from Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Gustav Åström; [2007]
    Keywords : CO2; Baltic Sea;

    Abstract : The increasing levels of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Earths atmosphere, caused by human release of CO2, has made it desirable to understand the factors determining the CO2-variation because of CO2’s warming effect on the Earths temperature which will change the premises of all life on earth. The purpose of this investigation is to understand the effects of the largest factors of influence on the CO2-concentration - like sea, vegetation and anthropogenic outlets - in the Baltic Sea region, and possible surprises from the results.

  6. 10. Effects of Upwelling Events on the Atmosphere

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Susanna Hagelin; [2006]
    Keywords : upwelling; marine boundary layer; air-sea interaction; turbulent fluxes;

    Abstract : During an upwelling event the cold bottom-water is brought to the sea surface. This cools the atmosphere from below and the stratification becomes more stable. When the atmosphere is more stable the turbulence is reduced and, as a consequence, so are the turbulent fluxes. READ MORE
