Systematic errors in global air-sea CO<sub>2</sub> flux caused by temporal averaging of sea-level pressure

Long-term temporal averaging of meteorological data, such as wind speed and air pressure, can cause large errors in air-sea carbon flux estimates. Other researchers have already shown that time averaging of wind speed data creates large errors in flux due to the non-linear dependence of the gas tran...
