“…Experiments have shown that in addition to other factors including turbulence, boundary layer stability, and surfactants, wind also acts as a key factor for the gas transfer at the air-water interface (Wanninkhof et al, 1992). Generally, the relationship between gas transfer and wind speed is expressed as a quadratic dependency (Sweeney et al, 2007), where gas transfer velocity was nearly zero in condition of wind speed lower than 3 m/s (Wanninkhof et al, 2014). In the region where Lake Medo is located, the mean annual wind speed is 2.4 m/s, which indicated a very low gas transfer velocity and limited diffusive flux of methane.…”
