Diffusion of contaminants in the ocean is a major factor forming
fields of both natural and man-mad substances introduced into the
water medium. Without proper understanding of the laws of
contaminant diffusion in the ocean it is impossible to choose the
correct methods of calculating the transport of biogenic elements,
dissolved gases and pollutants. Diffusion processes in the ocean
are very com plicated because of the larger number of factors
influencing the distribution of a substance. In this regard,
progress in studying the regularities of contami nant diffusion in
the ocean can only be reached when combining theoretical and
experimental methods. Both theoretical and experimental studies on
the diffusion of contaminants in the ocean have been devoted much
attention in many countries of the world. The results are being
published in a larger number of journals and collected works;
however, until now there have been no comprehensive publications on
the diffu sion of contaminants in the ocean. This monograph
summarizes the results obtained on the problem by the author and
other researchers. The presentation of theoretical results is
combined with the data obtained in diffusion experiments with
artificial tracers. Also given are practical recommendations on how
to compute the behavior of contaminants in various
hydrometeorological conditions. Several parts of the monograph are
based on the studies I have made in colla boration with A.N.
