A model study was undertaken to investigate the optimization of sampling strategies for returning low-uncertainty sea-air CO₂ flux measurements in the Southern Ocean. Replicating Lenton et al. (2006) using the ORCA2/PISCES ocean biological model shows that sampling 4 times a year, every 2⁰ in latitude and every 40⁰ in longitude reduces the uncertainty of estimating annual CO₂ flux estimates such that sampling at a higher frequency does not reduce the total uncertainty in proportion to the increase in sampling effort. 2015-07-03T10:36:29Z 2015-07-03T10:36:29Z 2014 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/13383 eng application/pdf Department of Oceanography Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
