Chemistry In the Atmosphere Ocean System

Chemistry In the Atmosphere Ocean System (CIAO): The main goal of this project is to determine the effect of the ocean biogeochemistry on the atmosphere. In the project an ocean model and a biogeochemical model of the ocean are coupled in the MESSy framework, and the air-sea exchange for the most important gases are investigated. New parametrisations for the photoproduction of tracers in the biogeochemical model are planned; the air-sea interactions of these tracers and their effect on the atmospheric chemistry will be studied.
