  • 1.    Introduction

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is principal greenhouse gas (Frankignoulle et al., 1998). The direction of CO2 gas movement depends on the CO2 concentration gradient between air and surface water (Schimel et al., 2001). The amount of CO2 exchange is related to the gas exchange coefficient. All water areas (Oceans, Straits, Lake, etc), with their big or small area but large atmospheric CO2 flux are important to understand the CO2 fluxes in continent (Meybeck, 1993). Fluxes, sources, and mechanisms of CO2 in ocean have been previously studied and compared (Sugimori and Zhao, 1995 and Hope et al., 1996>;.......... . .

Meanwhile, the world ocean plays an important role in the earth climate. It is not only absorbs heat from the sun, but plays a major role in carbon cycle processes (Akiyama, 2002). Ocean contains more than fifty times carbon in the atmosphere and can be taken as a buffer limiting the concentration of CO2 in atmosphere (SugimoriandZhao, 1995). Forlongterm climate forecasts, knowledge ofthe heat, momentum,

and substance exchange between the atmosphere and the ocean is essential because the time constants and capacities of the ocean are much larger than those of the atmosphere.

Carbon dioxide (CO2), as the main greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, has been studied for many years. An increase in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) has been directly observed over the past 40 years in Hawaiian Island from 315 PPMV (partper million in volumes) to358 PPMV in 1994 (Keeling, 1995) and in 2004 become 380 PPMV Pre-industrial concentration at 270-280 PPMV and there is no doubt that the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere will continue to increase in the future. Some numerical models have been developed to describe the climate response as carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration increases, and the results show that globally average temperature on the earth surface would increase from 1.5 to 5 Celsius degree due to different model, if the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration will be produced to be double of the recent concentration (Keeling, 1995).

Since the growth rate of carbon dioxide (CO2) in atmosphere is less than the rate of carbon release, some released carbon dioxide must be absorbed by either the terrestrial biosphere or the oceans.

Wind speed and wind friction velocity are not only the factor influencing the gas (CO2) transfer veoy wrtolence wave break,ng. and bubbly are also the main factor in gas exchange (Sugimori and Zhao, 1995). The determination of wind speed and wind friction velocity from satellite-derived wind data will take an important role for air sea interaction in the ocean (Suzuki et al, 2002). Ocean wave directional spectrum is much more important parameter for describing the essential structure of ocean wave. It is generally agreed that additional wave information such as wavelength, wave direction, and perhaps wave height are contained in SyntheticAperture Radarwave image (JAXA, 2005).

PALSAR is an active microwave sensor using L-band frequency to achieve cloud-free and day-aad-night land oration ( Jaxa- ZWJ) J. provides higher performance than the JERS-1 s

synthetic aperture radar (SAR). This research, study of wind wave bubbling process is located in Badung and L»rnbok St™ts becanse «reset areas are important places for the transportation between Ball and Lombok, and also near from land. The image data sHer.ld be lata in deep wato related to the main wavelength, so the wind wave parameters could be found easily. The Lombok strait, a small sea channel between the islands Bali and Lombok, is the second most important trans-section in southern part of the Indonesian through-flow. The aims of this research are to know the air-sea interaction at sea surface and the CO2 exchange process between the atmosphere and the ocean using ALOS/PALSAR.

Research Procedures

Digital image processing

The image from ALOS/PALSAR is processed in GIS software. The digital image processing is divided into three steps there were: data selection, geometric correction, and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).

Data Calculation

  • 1)  Spectral Form of Wind Wave in High Frequency

S (ω) = 2παgu *ω-p          (1)

Spectral form of wind wave in high frequency can be expressed as follows:

Where: = Wind wave energy density, g = gravity acceleration (ms'2), u* = coefficient of friction velocity, = a constant = 0.0214, = Peak Frequency, Where, p = 1.538 to 6 (Toba and Chaen, 1973). From Equation (1) wind friction velocity (u*) is calculated.

  • 2)    The estimation of Whitecap coverage (W)

The fraction of whitecap coverage due to the wave breaking has been investigated for many years such as by Monahan and Spillane (1984), Toba .i chaen (i973),and Wu <l988>. Generally, whitecap coverage (W) is related to the wind speed or wind friction velocity. Area ratio of whitecap on Whitecap Model can be expressed as follows: W = 0.066 U* (2)

  • 3)   Carbon dioxide (CO2) calculation

  • a)    Air-sea CO2 gas transfer velocity

Air-sea CO2 gas transfer velocity can be calculated as follows (Monahan and Spillane,1984):

K K (1-W) + K W         (3a)

radon m                e

Where, K = transfer velocity associated without Whitecap area = 9.58 cm/hr, Ke = transfer velocity related a turbulent Whitecap area = 475.07 cm/hr, W = area ratio of whitecap on Whitecap model, K radon = transfer function of gas (cm/hr), Carbon dioxide gas transfer velocity can be calculated as follows:

v            ( ScCO2 - n

CO2      radon (Sc , )                 (3b)

cradon

Where: Kc02   = CO2 gas transfer

velocity,

Sc c02 = 2073.1 - 125.62T + 3.6276T2 -4.3219x10'2T3

Sc , = 3412.8 - 224.30T + 6.7954T2-radon

8.3x10'2T3

  • b)    Air-sea CO2 gas exchange coefficient Air-sea CO2 gas exchange coefficient calculation with equation (Akiyama, 2002):

Eco = Kco * Lco              (4)

co2      co 2    co 2

Where: = CO2 gas exchange coefficient (cm/hr), = CO2transfervelocitycm/hr), = CO2 gas solubility (mol/liter atm).

  • c)   Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas solubility

Weiss (1974) provided an empirical formula to estimate CO2 gas solubility L on the basis of data fitting between the solubility, temperature, and salinity as follows:

lnL=A1+A2(100/Tabs)+A3 ln(Tabs/100)+ S [(B1 + B2(Tabs /100) + B3(Tabs /100)2] (5)

Where, Tabs = absolute temperature (K) = (273.15+ To Celsius) K,S = salinity (psu),

  • d)    Carbon dioxide (CO2) flux calculation The carbon dioxide flux can be calculated as follows (Akiyama, 2002):

F = * (pCO2 t b - pCO2 t )(6)

u 2 atmosphere 1      2 seawater7v 7

F= *ΔpCO2

Where, F: CO2 fluX (μmol/kg), p('° .m e.: CO2 partial pressure in atmosphere (μatm), pCO,   , : CO, partial pressure in

seawater(μatm),∆ pCO2: Carbondioxide partial pressure.

  • e)    Carbon dioxide partial pressure (The ^pCO2) distribution derived from sea surface temperature (SST)

The Δ p CO2 is a function of temperature, total inorganic CO2 concentration (T CO2), alkalinity, and salinity. Metzl et al. (1995) tried to derive pCO,   from the relation

2water

with sea surface temperature (SST) in Indian Ocean. As pCO2 air in the atmosphere varies slowly in both spatial and temporal scale, Zhou (1995) derived the difference of CO2partial pressure between air and sea

(⅛CO2) from sea surface temperature. The relationship between ΔpCO2 and SST is investigated using in situ data and MODIS data monthly in year 2007. Due to data limitation, related to summer and winter period are derived using least square fit method and the relation between Δ pCO2 and SST can be expressed as:

pCO2 = 0.0147Γ3 -0.1241f2-12.3453Γ + 115.5879 (4.8) (In summer period)

Where, T = Sea Surface Temperature (Celsius).

In this study, the average value of wind frictionvelocity (u*) is 0.00565 (Table 2). Under a continuous influence of wind, waves grow and eventually become unstable locally, the wave then break to dissipate excess energy provided by the wind (Wu, 1988). The breaking is marked by whitecaps.

The fraction of whitecap coverage due to the wave breaking has been investigated for many years (Monahan and David, ≡7±^ aTT973iwu 19883 Zhao, 1995). Generally, whitecap coverage (W) is related to the wind speed or wind friction velocity. Monahan and David (1989) used ordinary least square fitting (OLS) and robust bi weight fitting technique (RBF) to analyze the data set of Toba and Chaen (1973). By the way, Wu (1979) proposed that the whitecap coverage, W, should be related to the wind stress or wind friction velocity on the basis of theoretical analysis. Waves break after wind wave is supplied excessive energy by wind. Whitecap coverage (W), the fraction of the sea surface covered by whitecaps, is related to the energy flux from wind (Wu, 1988). However, the conclusion, whitecap coverage (W) should be proportional to the cube of wind friction velocity, seems to have been accepted by the scientific community (Wu, 1988).

In this work, some data of directional wind wave spectrum image have been taken in the inland sea, Badung and Lombok Straits. The data is digitized byFastFourier Transform in the computer. Toba and a^^andMo-ano984)^ reprocessed after friction velocity is reestimated on the basis of wind speed logarithmic profile. Finally, the result to determined the wind friction velocity in order to calculated whitecap coverage (W) by the modified whitecap model hereafter, w^66,.-,+..-....,,..,.,.,1.. area ratio of whitecap on Whitecap Model τ boated, w = m^ ^ wholevalueofU*, W,andK . ,areshown ’    7           radon’

After the whitecap coverage coefficient is found, the processes are continued to find the transfer velocity of gas transfer associated without whitecap area (Kradon) withMonahanModelcalculation(K , = radon

Km (1-W) + Ke W), from this equation the value of K , is found (K , = 9.58 cm radon                   radon

hour'1). From the K , value, the radon

calculation processes are continued to get the CO2 transfer velocity ( Kco2) also follows the Monahan model calculation ScCO. -f,

( KCO2 = Kradon (~----)     ). Result is

Scradon

shown in Figure 6 (a).

The calculation processes are continued to get the CO2 gas solubility (L), after the CO2 transfer velocity is estimated. L coefficient then combine with CO2 transfers velocity ( KCO^), so the CO2 gas exchange coefficient ( Eco2) is estimated. The calculation processes are continued ,o g.t ^ pCy. After til.     pO .

estirnated, th. calculation P^^.s are continued to get CO2 flux combining with CO2 gas exchange coefficient

(Flux= Eco2* ∆p∞2).

SST MODIS Data Monthly Year 2007

Figure 2 Graphic of annual SST value from January until December in 2007

Figure 2 shows data monthly of MODIS data year 2007 from January until December, under the temperature from 24.430C to31.800C. The lowest and highest temperature could be seen on August and February, with average temperature 26.690C and 30.460C. The minimum SST value is from 24.430C in

September to 29.920C in February. The maximum SST Vl” is from 2290c in Somber t09S0C in February. Also, the average SST is from 26.690C in August to 30.460C in February. The lowest average SST is found in August and the highest is found in February 2007. Distributions of SST are shown in Figure 6 (b).

DistributionDataofMonthly ΔpCO2 between the Atmosphere and Ocean in 2007

Figure3GraphicofMonthly ΔCO2from

January until December in 2007

Figure 3 shows monthly data of Δ pCO2 year 2007 from January until December, under Δ pCO2 from -44.66 μatm to +28.78 μatm. The lowest and highest Δ pCO2 could be seen on February and August, with average Δ pCO2 -2.05 μatm and +39.95 μatm. The positive value of ΔpCO2 indicates the transfer of partial pressure is from the ocean to the atmosphere which is shown in January until June and November until December during high SST in year 2007. The negative value of Δ pCO2 indicates the transfer partial pressure is from atmosphere to the ocean which is shown in July until October during low SST in year 2007. Result shows the negative Δ pCO2 value which indicates transfer of Δ pCO2 into the ocean is from -22.05 μatm on August to -5.42 μatm on October. The positive Δ pCO2 value which indicates transfer of Δ pCO2 into the atmosphere is from 0.64 μatm on June to 39.95 μatm on February. Measurements ofthe atmospheric CO2 concentration indicate that it has been increasing at a rate about 50% of that which is expected from all industrial CO2 emissions(Takahashi etal., 1997).

Result also shows that the mean annual ι! pCO2 values (area weighted) for the inland sea are positive (+39.95 ± 5.21 μatm) in February, and negative (-22.05 ±9.86 μatm) in August. This means that the oceans are, as a whole, nearly in equilibrium with atmospheric CO2, although they are locally out of equilibrium. This suggests that the oceanic uptake of CO2 depends sensitively on the wind speed distribution where large negative ΔpCO2 and high wind speeds prevail. The result is comparable with Takahashi climatologically data set in equator area. The result is not much different within Takahashi result. The annual mean Δ pCO2 in this study is +34.74 μatm inFebruaryand -12.19 μatm in August. This exchange coefficient correspond Takahashi et ∙l(1997)ns1H÷27<>0^

μatm, in August (really not much different), which is global mean value ofCO2 estimated from air-sea water equilibrium methods (Takahashi et al., 1997). Distributions of“pCO2 are shown in Figure 6 (c).

Distribution Monthly Data of CO2 Exchange Coefficients (The Transfer Velocity of Carbon dioxide) between the Atmosphere and Ocean in 2007

Figure 4 shows distribution monthly data of CO2 exchange coefficients between the atmosphere and ocean in 2007 from Januaryuntil December, under

the carbon dioxide exchange coefficients from 0.27 (mol m'2month'1 μatm'1) to 0. (mol m'2month'1 μatm'1). The lowest and highest transfer velocity of carbon dioxide could be seen on February and on August, with average CO2 exchange transfer velocity 0.28 (mol m'2month'1μatm'1) and 0.32 (mol m'2month'1 μatm'1). The CO2 transfer velocity which is determined from a turbulent whitecap area and sea surface temperature become lower if SST and the area of whitecap coverage are smaller.

Result shows the minimum CO2 exchange coefficients are from 0.27 (mol m'2 month'1 μatm'1) on December to0.31 (mol m'2month'1 μatm'1) on August. The maximum CO2 exchange coefficients are from 0.29 (mol m'2month'1μatm'1) on February to 0.34 (mol m'2month'1μatm'1) on September. Also, the average CO2 exchange coefficients are from 0.28 (mol m'2month'1 μatm'1) on Februaryto 0.32 (mol m'2month' 1μatm'1) on August. The lowest average CO2 exchange coefficient is found on February and the highest is found on August 2007.

In this study, the distribution of gas exchange coefficient obtained by the modified whitecap ^^OS/^^^^ data estimated from MODIS monthly data in 2007. The annual mean CO2 gas exchange coefficient is 0.303 m°l m'2 m0ath''μarm- or 2.525 x IO'2 (mol m 2month 1μatm1). This exchange coefficient corresponds Zhao (1995) result 5.7 x 10'2 (mol m'2month'1μatm'1) (or 19.7 cm hour'1) which is little smaller than 6.1x 10'2 (mol m'2month'1μatm'1) (or 21cm hour'1), which is global mean value of CO2 estimated from C14 data (Broecker et al., 1986in Zhao,

1995). The seasonal variation can be seen clearly; especially the mean exchange coefficient varies much in May to October compared with November to April. Distributions of CO2 exchange coefficients are shown in Figure 6 (d).
