Despite the huge extent of the ocean's surface, until now relatively little attention has been
paid to the sea surface microlayer (SML) as the ultimate interface where heat, momentum …

Ocean aerobiology is defined here as the study of biological particles of marine origin,
including living organisms, present in the atmosphere and their role in ecological …

The surface of the oceans acts as a global sink and source for trace gases and aerosol
particles. Recent studies suggest that photochemical reactions at this air/water interface …

Ocean CO2 uptake accounts for 20–40% of the post-industrial sink for anthropogenic CO2.
The uptake rate is the product of the CO2 interfacial concentration gradient and its transfer …

The air-sea gas transfer velocity (K 660) is typically assessed as a function of the 10-m
neutral wind speed (U 10n), but there remains substantial uncertainty in this relationship …

Plastic pollution in world oceans is estimated to have reached 270.000 tones, or 5.25 trillion
pieces. This plastic is now ubiquitous, however due to ocean circulation patterns, it …

The sea surface microlayer (SML) is the thin interface between the ocean and the
atmosphere, exhibiting an enrichment of hydrophobic and surfactant-like chemicals. Here …

The paper presents a unique time series of organic matter content (dissolved organic
carbon, DOC, and its surface active substances fraction, SAS) collected in the northern …

Nitrous acid, HONO, is a key net photolytic precursor to OH radicals in the atmospheric
boundary layer. As OH is the dominant atmospheric oxidant, driving the removal of many …

We have analyzed near-global stratospheric data (and mesospheric data as well for H 2 O)
in terms of absolute abundances, variability, and trends for O 3, H 2 O, HCl, N 2 O, and HNO …
