Scientists investigating the interaction between the ocean and the atmosphere now believe that the drag coefficient, and the coefficients of heat transfer and moisture transfer at the sea surface, all increase with an intensification of the wind, reaching high values during a storm. This belief is based on the results of gradient and eddy correlation measurements in the air layer over the water, as weIl as on data concerning the effect of storms on the structure of the upper layer of the ocean and on the planetary atmospheric boundary layer. However, until recently it was impossible to explain just how ... Read more

Reviews for Air-sea Exchange of Heat and Moisture During Storms
`... the book of Dr Bortkovskii, as much as the excellent work of Dr Monahan, opens the way in a clear and elegant style and I have no hesitation to recommend the book warmly to all interested libraries and research workers.' Atmospheric Research, 25, 1990
