First Paragraph

To quote pioneering quantum physicist Wolfgang Ernst Pauli: “God made the bulk, surfaces were invented by the Devil” (Schroeder, 1991). Although it is not known whether this Austrian-Swiss professor was referring to the sea surface, many ocean scientists studying the air-sea interface would agree with him.
