Zusammenfassung |
This special section of Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics gives an overview
of scientific results, collected during a West Pacific ship expedition in
October 2009 with the Research Vessel (R/V) Sonne. The cruise focussed
on chemical interactions between the ocean surface and the atmosphere above
the tropical West Pacific and was planned within the national research
project TransBrom (www.geomar.de/~transbrom). TransBrom aimed to
particularly investigate very short lived bromine compounds in the ocean and
their transport to and relevance for the stratosphere. For this purpose,
chemical and biological parameters were analysed in the ocean and in the
atmosphere, accompanied by a high frequency of meteorological measurements,
to derive new insights into the multidisciplinary research field. This
introduction paper presents the scientific goals and the meteorological and
oceanographic background. The main research findings of the TransBrom
Sonne expedition are highlighted. |
