The concentration of a chemical property throughout the oceans is governed by advective transport, eddy diffusion, internal sources, and sinks and exchange with the surroundings at the sea floor, the ocean margins, and the air-sea interface. In an interpolation scheme, in which the observations are satisfied, the effects on the surface water property of internal sources and sinks, exchange with atmosphere and upwelling of deep water are considered inherently imbedded in the observed data.
