When particles are dispersed in
water at ambient temperature, energy is directed primarily to vaporization of water into steam, with a much smaller fraction resulting in heating of the fluid.

at moderate
ambient temperatures).

at sampling depth for a few minutes before extraction, the walls of the bucket would have come near the
ambient water temperature, slowing heat loss from the captured
water.
Dissolved GHG flux (Fd) was calculated as: where Csur is the gas concentration in surface
water, Ceq is the gas concentration when in equilibrium with the atmosphere
at ambient temperature (global atmospheric concentrations were used), and k is the gas exchange velocity calculated as: where Sc is the Schmidt number calculated from empirical third - order polynomial fit to
water temperature and corrected
at 20 °C.
