Bubble sizes in waters of the Atlantic Ocean

Listed in PANGAEA

Typical size of bubbles obtained from cavitation inception pressure measured in the surface layer of the Atlantic Ocean in situ aboard R/V Professor Vize in 1971 and Nerey in 1973 are reported.

Description

These results do not contradict ones of bubble size measurements using optical or acoustical techniques. Variability of bubble size is discovered and described.

This variability is related to passing from one geographical region to another (from 68°55'S to 61°52'N), to changes in depth (from 5 to 100 m) and in day time, as well as to spatial fluctuations within an aquatic area. It is suggested that, in addition to wave breaking, there is another source of bubbles at depth 10-20 m that associates with hydrobiological processes.
