Abstract
The radon deficit method of measuring gas transfer from the sea has so far failed to give reliable information on the dependence of transfer velocity on wind speed owing to the 5.5 day mean lifetime of the radon nuclide. Calculations with a simple model illustrate how the normal variations in wind speed encountered during trials at sea cause even a strong dependence to be largely obscured.
