Mass transfer at the ocean–atmosphere interface: the role of wave breaking, droplets, and bubbles

L Deike - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 - annualreviews.org
Breaking waves modulate the transfer of energy, momentum, and mass between the ocean
and atmosphere, controlling processes critical to the climate system, from gas exchange of …

Sub-Hinze scale bubble production in turbulent bubble break-up

A Riviere, W Mostert, S Perrard, L Deike - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2021 - cambridge.org
We study bubble break-up in homogeneous and isotropic turbulence by direct numerical
simulations of the two-phase incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. We create the …

Dynamics of jets produced by bursting bubbles

L Deike, E Ghabache, G Liger-Belair, AK Das… - Physical Review …, 2018 - APS
Sea spray is the main source of aerosols above the ocean. One of the pathways for sea
spray production is through bubble bursting, which ejects myriads of droplets. We present a …

Role of all jet drops in mass transfer from bursting bubbles

A Berny, L Deike, T Séon, S Popinet - Physical Review Fluids, 2020 - APS
When a bubble bursts at the surface of a liquid, it creates a jet that may break up and
produce jet droplets. This phenomenon has motivated numerous studies due to its multiple …

Gas transfer by breaking waves

L Deike, WK Melville - Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
The transfer of gases at the ocean‐atmosphere interface impacts weather and climate from
local to global scales, with carbon dioxide (CO2) key to marine life and ecosystems, and …

Airborne Remote Sensing of Upper‐Ocean and Surface Properties, Currents and Their Gradients From Meso to Submesoscales

L Lenain, BK Smeltzer, N Pizzo… - Geophysical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
In this work we present a unique set of coincident and collocated high‐resolution
observations of surface currents and directional properties of surface waves collected from …

Sea spray aerosol formation: Laboratory results on the role of air entrainment, water temperature, and phytoplankton biomass

S Christiansen, ME Salter, E Gorokhova… - … science & technology, 2019 - ACS Publications
Sea spray aerosol (SSA) emission is a complex process affected by various controlling
factors. This work seeks to deconvolute some of this complexity in a controlled laboratory …

Numerical investigation of flow structure and air entrainment of breaking bow wave generated by a rectangular plate

Y Hu, C Liu, C Hu, D Wan - Physics of Fluids, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
Breaking bow waves entrain massive gas that generate ambient noise and produce spray
and bubbly wake with whitecap. This study aims to give a quantitative description of the flow …
