The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The North Pacific Subtropical Countercurrent (STCC) region has high mesoscale eddy activities due to its complex circulation structure. This study divides these mesoscale eddies into four types: cyclonic cold-core eddy (CCE), anticyclonic warm-core eddy (

Relative Humidity as an Indicator for Cloud Formation over Heterogeneous land surfaces [PDF]
, 2008 The influence of land surface heterogeneity on potential cloud formation is investigated using relative humidity as an indicator. This is done by performing numerical experiments using a large-eddy simulation model (LES).

Oceanic Mesoscale Eddy Depletion Catalyzed by Internal Waves
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Abstract The processes leading to the depletion of oceanic mesoscale kinetic energy (KE) and the energization of near‐inertial internal waves are investigated using a suite of realistically forced regional ocean simulations.

The Madagascar Bloom – a serendipitous study [PDF]
, 2013 The late austral summer (February-April) phytoplankton bloom that occurs east of Madagascar exhibits significant interannual variability and at its largest extent covers ~1% of the world’s ocean surface area.

Mesoscale Whole‐Brain T2*‐Weighted and Associated Quantitative MRI in Humans at 10.5 T
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose To demonstrate mesoscale whole‐brain T2*‐weighted (T2*w) MRI at 10.5 T, quantify R2* relaxation rate and magnetic susceptibility (χ), and evaluate T2*w contrast at such high field strength. Methods Multi‐echo GRE (ME‐GRE) data were collected in healthy adults at 0.5 mm isotropic resolution at 10.5 T.

Dynamics and model representation of two contrasting extreme precipitation events in the Sahel
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Hovmöller diagrams of the two investigated extreme precipitation events in Mali are shown for (i) IMERG observations, and ICOsahedral Nonhydrostatic model (ICON) runs with parameterization of explicit convection (ii) enabled and (iii) disabled. This work highlights that the commonly perceived benefit of using explicit convection in a state‐of‐the‐art ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Motivated by the recurrent formation of eddies in the eastern upwelling areas, we examine cross-basin connectivity that is promoted by coherent, long-lived and long-propagating mesoscale eddies in the Atlantic Ocean.
