Enhanced Estimation of Root Zone Soil Moisture at 1 km Resolution Using SMAR Model and MODIS-Based Downscaled AMSR2 Soil Moisture Data [PDF]
Root zone soil moisture (RZSM) is an essential variable for weather and hydrological prediction models. Satellite-based microwave observations have been frequently utilized for the estimation of surface soil moisture (SSM) at various spatio-temporal ...

An Analysis of Arctic Sea Ice Leads Retrieved from AMSR-E/AMSR2
In this study, we retrieve an Arctic sea ice lead fraction from AMSR2 passive microwave data in winter from 2012 to 2020 based on an algorithm developed for AMSR-E data. The derived AMSR2 sea ice lead fraction is validated against MODIS images.

Enhancing Role of Nitrogen Fixation in Biogeochemical Cycles of the Pacific Arctic. [PDF]
Composite mean fields of sea surface temperature and sea‐ice distribution for September during 2015–2024, comparing years with high (2015, 2016, 2021) and low (2017, 2019, 2023) sea‐ice coverage. Earlier sea‐ice melt can promote the advection of diazotrophs (UCYN‐A2 and their haptophyte hosts) from the Bering Sea into the Beaufort Sea basin, where ...
