Wind Speed and Sea State Dependencies of Air‐Sea Gas Transfer: Results From the High Wind Speed Gas Exchange Study (HiWinGS)
Byron Blomquist,Sophia E. Brumer,Christopher W. Fairall,Barry J. Huebert,Christopher J. Zappa,Ian M. Brooks,Mingxi Yang,Ludovic Bariteau,John Prytherch,J. E. Hare,Helen Czerski,A. Matei,Robin W. Pascal +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the HiWinGS project successfully measured gas transfer coefficients (k660) with coincident wave statistics under conditions with hourly mean wind speeds up to 24 m s−1 and significant wave heights to 8 m.

Whitecap Coverage Dependence on Wind and Wave Statistics as Observed during SO GasEx and HiWinGS
Sophia E. Brumer,Christopher J. Zappa,Ian M. Brooks,Hitoshi Tamura,S. Brown,Byron Blomquist,Byron Blomquist,Christopher W. Fairall,Alejandro Cifuentes-Lorenzen +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the dependence of the whitecap coverage on wind speed, wave age, wave steepness, mean square slope, and wind-wave and breaking Reynolds numbers was determined from over 600 highfrequency visible imagery recordings of 20 min each.

Wave-Related Reynolds Number Parameterizations of CO2 and DMS Transfer Velocities
Sophia E. Brumer,Christopher J. Zappa,Byron Blomquist,Christopher W. Fairall,Alejandro Cifuentes-Lorenzen,James B. Edson,Ian M. Brooks,Barry J. Huebert +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore empirical parameterizations that incorporate both wind speed and sea state dependence via wave-wind and breaking Reynolds numbers, RH and RB, and show that wave-related Reynolds numbers collapse four open ocean data sets that have a wind speed dependence of CO₂ transfer velocity ranging from lower than quadratic to cubic.

On the Variation of the Effective Breaking Strength in Oceanic Sea Statesa
TL;DR: In this paper, the feasibility of a parametric mean effective breaking strength coefficient valid for a wide range of sea states is investigated and robust evidence is found supporting a single linear parameter relationship between the effective strength and wave age or significant wave steepness.

TL;DR: In this paper, the wave breaking at high wind speeds and its effect on air-sea gas transfer was studied and shown to have a significant impact on the transfer of air-seas gas.
