A review of the FATIMA Yellow Sea field campaign research

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The FATIMA marine fog project took place over the Sable Island region of eastern Canada (summer 2022) and the Yellow Sea of the Republic of Korea (ROK, summer 2023). Its goals are to improve marine fog monitoring and forecasting. Instrumented multiple research vessels, aircraft, tethered balloon and autonomous systems, ocean observation sites, and ...

Distribution and phenotypic variability of the Mediterranean gorgonian Paramuricea macrospina (Cnidaria: Octocorallia)

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2018
The genus Paramuricea is present in the Mediterranean Sea with two species, P. clavata and P. macrospina. These species have similar bathymetric distributions and can live in sympatry. P.

Characteristics and dynamics of surfzone transverse finger bars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Patches of transverse finger bars have been identified in the surf zone of Noordwijk beach (Netherlands). They consisted of three to nine elongated accumulations of sand attached to the low-tide shoreline.

First wide-angle view of channelized turbidity currents links migrating cyclic steps to flow characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Field observations of turbidity currents remain scarce, and thus there is continued debate about their internal structure and how they modify underlying bedforms.

Modulation of wind drag by tidal currents in an embayment

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Tidal currents modulate how wind energy enters the surface wave field by influencing both wave drag and wave generation. In Shark Bay, following currents reduce effective wave steepness and wind drag, and opposing currents enhance wave growth. Wind energy is partitioned between wave drag and the creation of new waves, explaining observed tidal ...

The land–sea coastal border: a quantitative definition by considering the wind and wave conditions in a wave-dominated, micro-tidal environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A quantitative definition for the land–sea (coastal) transitional area is proposed here for wave-driven areas, based on the variability and isotropy of met-ocean processes.

Enabling Under Ice Glider Operations: A Backseat Driver Approach

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polar Oceans are key locations for forcing global ocean circulation, influencing both global climate and biogeochemical cycles. Due to restricted access to these seasonally and perennially ice‐covered regions, these areas are severely undersampled.

High-precision 1′ × 1′ bathymetric model of Philippine Sea inversed from marine gravity anomalies [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
The Philippine Sea, located at the edge of the northwestern Pacific Ocean, possesses complex seabed topography. Developing a high-precision bathymetric model for this region is of paramount importance, as it provides fundamental geoinformation essential ...

Marine Benthic Habitat Mapping of Muir Inlet, Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Alaska With an Evaluation of the Coastal and Marine Ecological Classification Standard III [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Seafloor geology and potential benthic habitats were mapped in Muir Inlet, Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Alaska, using multibeam sonar, ground-truth information, and geological interpretations. Muir Inlet is a recently deglaciated fjord that is

Flow and retreat of the Late Quaternary Pine Island-Thwaites palaeo-ice stream, West Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Multibeam swath bathymetry and sub-bottom profiler data are used to establish constraints on the flow and retreat history of a major palaeo-ice stream that carried the combined discharge from the parts of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet now occupied by the ...
