A propos de cet article

Hardcover, xvii + 341 pages, NOT ex-library. Gentle handling wear, a small corner indentation to a portion of leaves, short creases to board edges. Book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- Contents: - General Section: - Oil on troubled waters: a historical survey; Carlo Marangoni and the Laboratory of Physics at the High School "Liceo Classico Dante" in Firenze (Italy); Tribute to Erik John Bock; -- 1: Chemical Characteristics of Sea Slicks and Oil Spills: -- Basic physicochemical principles of monomolecular sea slicks and crude oil spills; New chemical insights into the structure and morphology of sea slicks and their geophysical interpretations; Sea slicks: variability in chemical composition and surface elasticity; Correlation studies of mass spectral patterns and elasticity of sea-slick materials; On surface renewal and sea slicks; -- 2: Chemical Characteristics: -- Physicochemical effects of the marine microlayer on air-sea gas transport; Static and dynamic surface tension of marine water: onshore or platform-based measurements by the oscillating bubble tensiometer; Multiple scattering of surface waves by two-dimensional colloid systems; Laboratory study of the damping of parametric ripples due to surfactant films; Wave tank study of phase velocities and damping of gravity-capillary wind waves in the presence of surface films; Laboratory measurements of artificial rain impinging on slick-free and slick-covered water surfaces; Imaging surfactant concentration distribution at the air/water interface Part 1: Surfactant concentration gradient on a laminar channel flow; Imaging surfactant concentration distribution at the air/water interface Part 2: Insoluble monolayer concentrations on standing capillary waves; -- 3: Modelling and Air-Sea Interactions: -- Variability of the wavenumber spectra of short surface waves in the ocean and their modulation due to internal waves and natural slicks; On the imaging of biogenic and anthropogenic surface films on the sea by radar sensors; Slick radar image modelling with an extended 'VIERS-1' wave spectrum; Thermal imagery of surface renewal phenomena; Infrared imaging: a novel tool to investigate the influence of surface slicks on air-sea gas transfer; -- 4: Remote Sensing Applications: -- Detection of oil spills by airborne sensors; Satellite monitoring of accidental and deliberate marine oil pollution; Long-term microwave radar monitoring of ocean slicks at low grazing angles; Oil spills on ALMAZ-1 and ERS-1 SAR images: results from the DOSE-91 experiment; Estimation of average surface currents from ERS SAR images of oil-tank cleaning spills; Index -- Since the late 1960s, various groups have investigated the influence of marine surface films on mechanisms dominating energy and mass transfer across the ocean/atmosphere interface. However, a compendium summarizing the state-of-the-art research in this field is still missing. The book fills this gap and transfers the accumulated knowledge to the scientific community. After a brief historical chapter basic chemical insights are presented, followed by theoretical and experimental approaches carried out in laboratory facilities. Air-sea interaction experiments are then described and finally, remote sensing applications with sea slicks and crude oil spills are presented.…
