Fig. 3: Interaction effect between low pressure and high wind speeds in storms.
From: Low-pressure storms drive nitrous oxide emissions in the Southern Ocean
Cumulative curves of the area- and time-integrated air-sea N2O fluxes associated with each BGC-Argo data point in teragrams of nitrogen per year (Tg N yr−1), sorted by barometric pressure in atmospheres (atm). Fluxes are calculated with median piston velocities and 1 atm (“baseline”, dark purple) and the observed piston velocities and barometric pressures (black line). The pure pressure effect corresponds to \({F}_{{median\; k}}-{F}_{{baseline}}\) (medium purple); the pure wind effect corresponds to \({F}_{1{atm}}-{F}_{{baseline}}\) (light purple); and the interaction (palest purple) is the remainder.
