Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Quantifying where marine organisms are born and subsequently disperse to is essential for fisheries management. Here, we conducted Lagrangian particle tracking of viviparous rockfish (Sebastes spp.) collected in the Southern California Bight over the course of 16 years.

Flood Risk Communications Through Maps: Challenges, Perception Theories and Approaches
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Flood risk communication is a core component of flood risk management, yet persistent challenges limit its effectiveness in supporting public understanding, preparedness and adaptive behaviour. Here, we examine flood risk maps as communication tools at the interface of scientific modelling, visual design, and human risk perception.

Sea level change in the Malaysian seas from multi-satellite altimeter data [PDF]
, 2009 Seas from satellite altimetry data of the Topex, Jason-1, ERS-1, ERS-2 and Envisat missions. During the past two decades, satellite altimeter has provided its capability in measuring the global mean of sea level with precision better than 1 mm/year.

Characteristic Geometry of Keels in Arctic Sea Ice Ridges
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.Abstract Deformation within and between sea ice floes creates pressure ridges, which compose a considerable volume fraction of the Arctic sea ice cover and complicate sea ice volume measurements. An important parameter for quantifying the ice volume contained in these deformation features is the keel shape.
