Abstract This study advances the detection of ocean fronts in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) by comparing traditional front detection algorithms with a machine learning model. Specifically, we evaluate the performance of three widely used methods, Canny Edge Detection (referred to as Canny), the Cayula‐Cornillon Algorithm (CCA) (referred to as CCA), and the ...

Escalating Extreme River Discharge Events Driven by Precipitation Changes in the Yangtze River Basin
Abstract Extreme river discharge events (ERDEs) directly induce catastrophic floods, posing severe threats to human life and infrastructure. Understanding the precipitation patterns that precede ERDEs is critical for identifying early flood warnings. This study investigated the spatiotemporal characteristics of 3‐hourly ERDEs across the Yangtze River ...

Abstract Rapid intensification (RI) of hurricanes and relative sea‐level rise (RSLR, the combined effect of global sea‐level rise and regional land subsidence) exacerbate compound flood risks by increasing the likelihood of coinciding surge and rainfall extremes. However, their combined influence on flooding remains insufficiently understood.

Abstract Earth's long period background seismic wavefield is dominated by two distinct processes that couple ocean wave energy to a global microseism wavefield. We assess global microseism intensity in the secondary (4–10 s) and primary (14–20 s) bands, and across eight 2 s‐wide period bands between 4 and 20 s.

Characterization of the Shallow Oxygen Minimum Zone of the Eastern Tropical North Atlantic
Abstract The Eastern Tropical North Atlantic (ETNA) hosts a shallow Oxygen Minimum Zone (sOMZ) extending roughly from 50 to 250 m depth, where oxygen concentrations typically fall to 40–60 μmol L−1. Despite its ecological and biogeochemical importance, the spatial and temporal characteristics of the hypoxic events that shape this sOMZ remain poorly ...

Abstract In the oxygen minimum zone of the eastern tropical North Pacific off the Gulf of Tehuantepec, mesoscale eddies and offshore jets often develop in response to Tehuano wind events. These dynamic features play crucial roles in modulating the vertical distribution of nutrients, dissolved oxygen, biogeochemical cycling, and regional primary ...

Abstract The spatial distribution and dynamics of glacial meltwater (MW) influence ocean circulation off and basal melt rate below Antarctic ice shelves. While previous studies described the MW distribution in Pine Island Bay off Pine Island Ice Shelf (PIIS), quantitative constraints on the spatial heterogeneity of the spread of MW associated with ...
