This perspective article determines the extent to which processes operating across the air\u2013sea interface are considered in international environmental policy. There is a lack of consideration in international regulation of the interaction between the atmosphere and the ocean, something that is not compatible with the environmental reality. Yet, there are examples where the air\u2013sea interface could have been incorporated in international legislation. The question is then why there is a gap between science and policy regarding air\u2013sea interactions. The concept of so-called soft law and related instruments, such as the 2015 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, might fill these gaps and so does the continuing contribution of SOLAS scientists to international law- and policymaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Visit the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.iamas.org\/icacgp\/publications\/\">publication<\/a>&nbsp;page for more reports, articles and presentations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SOLAS scientists recently published an article titled&nbsp;Science, international law, and policy across the air\u2013sea interface&nbsp;in Elementa (link).
