If a larger mass of warm air has to pass through it, more energy is transferred, through the evaporator's fins (so that even the evaporator's design and, in particular, its exchange surface play an important part) from the air to the liquid refrigerant allowed inside it by the TEV or orifice tube so it expands more and, along with the absolute pressure inside the evaporator, the refrigerant's vapor superheat (the delta between the boiling point of the fluid at a certain absolute pressure and the temperature of the vapour) increases, since after expanding into saturated vapour, it has enough time to catch enough heat to warm up further by vaporizing the remaining liquid (an important property of a superheated vapour is that no fluid in the liquid state is carried around by the vapour, unlike with saturated vapour).

This permits the exchange of gases between the water and the air.

I would suggest comparing peak to peak average temperature captures during weighted El - Nino events (during the time they occur, if they can be compared equally this would be a telling graph), instead of considering year to year records as a means of reducing ENSO effects on the temperature record, ENSO being largely a heat exchange between air and sea causing great changes in cloud distribution world wide.

The exchange of heat between the air and sea surface is particularly intense close to the edge of the sea ice.

There seems to be little exchange in surface waters between the NH and SH (as good as is the case for air currents), see the main sea currents.

In a range of naturally ventilated homes with airtightness ranging from 5 to 20 ach @ 50Pa, winter air exchange rates were estimated to vary between 0.2 and 0.7 ach — and the ventilation rate was not closely related to airtightness, which casts doubt on the long standing assumption that infiltration can be seen as part of the ventilation strategy.2

Whilst flowing across the area between the two columns that cold air does not warm up by compression despite falling in height because it remains in contact with stratospheric air with which it can freely exchange energy by conduction and mixing.

As you can see, there is little difference between the stations, the largest difference of a few ppmv is between the NH and the SH, as the ITCZ hinders the exchange of air masses between the hemispheres.

Finally, they say, any increase in clear air turbulence would have important implications for large - scale atmospheric circulation, because clear air turbulence contributes significantly to exchanges between the stratosphere and the lower atmosphere.

That is, under the RF model, natural CO2, which exchanges between air and surface at more than an order of magnitude greater than ACO2, would be as susceptible to accumulation in the atmosphere.

Thus, air - sea gas exchange paired with slow internal mixing in the oceans lead to a disequilibrium in radiocarbon activity between the atmosphere and the ocean, which is known as the Marine Reservoir Effect (MRE).

There is no relation between the radiation flows exchanged by surface and air (whose net balance is about zero) and the radiation from the top of the air lost to the cosmos some kilometres above the surface; the cooling of the «top of the air» at mid and high latitudes is compensated by advection of humid air from mid latitudes.

QUOTE:» There were over 3 million pCO2 measurements of ocean waters in the past decades which confirm Henry's law...» ANSWER: You seem to refer to Takahashi's data; as the exchange of CO2 between air and water is strongly dependent upon the speed of the wind (as the third power of the wind according to Wanninkof & McGillis 1999) it's not Henry law!

Figure 17 - D hints at the very strong spatial variability of the CO2 content of the air and of the surface waters; exchanges between air and ocean are proportional to the difference of the pressures times the cube of the speed of the wind.

The compartments inside the ocean and in the soil can then be manipulated at will to recover k (t) and T0 and the delta13C steps at the times of the El Nino but the many assumptions to be made cast a strong doubt on such modelling; note than between IPCC's AR4 and AR5 the difference between preindustrial flows between compartments and todays assumed flows has been changed very significantly (from 2 to 14 Gt - C for the absorption by the plants) and the air - ocean exchanges reduced by 10 Gt - C!
