Este livro expressa, por um lado, a experiência de realizar coletivamente uma pesquisa durante seis anos, desde a construção de sua metodologia, passando pelo desenvolvimento dela, incluindo a realização de inúmeros trabalhos de campo e chegando a esta publicação que, refletindo o percurso vivido, também foi escrita a várias mãos.

In order to constrain the processes controlling the cycles of biogeochemically important gases such as 02 and C02, and thereby infer rates of biological activity in the upper ocean or the uptake of radiatively important "greenhouse" gases, the noble gases are used to characterize and quantify the physical processes affecting the dissolved gases in aquatic environments. The processes of vertical mixing, gas exchange, air injection, and radiative heating are investigated using a 2 year time-series of the noble gases, temperature, and meteorological data from Station S near Bermuda, coupled with a 1- dimensional upper ocean mixing model to simulate the physical processes in the upper ocean. The...
