Sea–air CO₂ fluxes in the Indian Ocean between 1990 and 2009 [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2013
The Indian Ocean (44° S–30° N) plays an important role in the global carbon cycle, yet it remains one of the most poorly sampled ocean regions. Several approaches have been used to estimate net sea–air CO2 fluxes in this region: interpolated observations,

New Records of Thecacineta cothurnioides and Trematosoma rotunda (Ciliophora, Suctorea) as epibionts on nematodes from the Indian Ocean [PDF]

, 2009
This article deals with the report of two suctorian ciliates species viz. Thecacineta cothurnioides Collin, 1909 and Trematosoma rotunda (Allgén, 1952 ) as epibionts on Tricoma sp. and Pseudochromadora sp.

Report of epibiont Thecacineta calix (Ciliophora: Suctorea) on deep sea Desmodora (Nematoda) from the Andaman Sea, Indian Ocean [PDF]

, 2009
Suctorian epibionts Thecacineta calix attached on the cuticle of nematodes Desmodora sphaerica and D. pontica are reported here from the deep sea hexactinellid sponge Pheronema sp. from the Andaman Sea (Indian Ocean). The epibiont T.

Digitisation of herbarium specimens to the benefit of research: An African perspective focusing on South Africa and Western Indian Ocean Island states

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Botanical exploration, discovery and conservation rely heavily on access to herbarium collections. Recently, digital access to label information, including georeferenced locality data, and images of herbarium specimens available online have greatly increased usage of herbarium specimen data.

Bats of the Western Indian Ocean Islands

Animals, 2011
The natural colonisation of many remote oceanic islands by bats, including those of the western Indian Ocean, has been facilitated by their unique capability among mammals for powered flight.

Meteorological conditions leading to a catastrophic, rain‐induced landslide in Cameroon in October 2019

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
October 2019 was characterized by three main multiday wet spells in Bafoussam and Dschang. Our results indicated that wet spells were influenced by a vortex pair near the Gulf of Guinea, a strong Sahara Heat Low located anomalously far east and north, a northward shift of the intertropical discontinuity, an enhancement of the inland penetration of the ...

Evaluation of model-simulated tropical cyclone response on the biogeochemical parameters using profiling float observations in the Arabian Sea

Scientific Reports
In this study, the measurements from a Biogeochemical Argo float (A-float) were used to evaluate the capability of coupled bio-physical model using Regional Ocean Model System (ROMS) in simulating the physical and biogeochemical state during the Tropical

Nitrogen uptake rates and f-ratios in the Equatorial and Southern Indian Ocean [PDF]

, 2015
We report data on nitrate, ammonium and urea uptake rates from the Equatorial and Southern Indian Oceans. Productivity (0.81–2.23 mmol N m–2 d–1) over the Equatorial Indian Ocean was low, but the f-ratio (0.13–0.45) was relatively high.

Assessing wildfire dynamics during a megafire in Portugal using the MesoNH/ForeFire coupled model

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Weather conditions affect megafires by inducing different fire behaviors over several days or weeks. The coupled MesoNH/ForeFire code was used to represent the dynamics of fire generating pyro‐convective clouds. To advance the understanding of wildfire dynamics, high‐resolution coupled fire–atmosphere modeling was employed.

Machine‐learning approaches for characterizing the raindrop size distributions in Western Pacific tropical cyclones

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Long‐term disdrometer observations are utilized to derive Z–R relationships for ‐the Western Pacific tropical cyclones. A hybrid moment‐based approach is employed to determine the interrelationships among pairs of gamma distribution parameters. Enhanced estimates of rainfall rate and slope parameter are obtained using machine‐learning techniques ...
