Ocean-Atmosphere Boundary Influences
The transfer of water into the atmosphere depends on continuous interactions occurring at the ocean surface.
Conditions including the temperature of the sea surface, the temperature of the overlying air, and the presence of surface winds dictate the overall rate of evaporation across oceanic environments.
