Air-Sea flux calculator
This Application is a simple calculator that estimates Turbulent Air-Sea Fluxes based on input variables such as wind speed, air temperature, or relative humidity.
The input variables can be easily set by hand with sliders.
The present Air-Sea Flux Calculator application makes it easy to get an estimate of the fluxes at Sea of for Educational purposes
The code is a simplification of the well known bulk algorithm so-called COARE 3.0 (Fairall et al. 2003).
The authors of this code are Nicolas Bourras and Denis Bourras (MIO CNRS UMR 7294, Institut Méditerranéen d'Océanologie, Institut Pytheas CNRS UAR 3470, Aix-Marseille University).

known issues
• Dynamic Stability of air is not accounted for in this version
• The range of reachable values for Air temperature and other bulk variables are arbitrarily restricted, improved versions can be compiled upon request
• Ancillary variables such as water vapour pressure, wet bulb temperature, could be added in the future
