A comparison among four different retrieval methods for ice-cloud properties using data from CloudSat, CALIPSO, and MODIS [PDF]

, 2011
The A-Train constellation of satellites provides a new capability to measure vertical cloud profiles that leads to more detailed information on ice-cloud microphysical properties than has been possible up to now.

Concurrent DNA meta‐barcoding and plankton imaging reveal novel parasitic infection and competition in a diatom

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Little is known about diatom parasitism in marine systems. Guinardia delicatula, a biomass‐dominant diatom on the Northeast US Shelf (NES), is regularly parasitized by the protistan nanoflagellate, Cryothecomonas aestivalis in this region. While G.

Revisiting the distribution and total amount of nitrogen fixation across the Kuroshio

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract The Kuroshio Current, a western boundary current in the North Pacific Ocean, is regarded as a hotspot of nitrogen fixation that drives marine primary productivity and biogeochemical cycles. However, this assumption is based on limited, spatiotemporally biased data.

Efficient cobalamin uptake and cycling contribute to the lack of cobalamins in the surface cobalt‐binding ligand pool in the North Pacific

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, EarlyView.
Abstract Cobalt is a central component of cobalamins, which are nutrients essential for various metabolic processes in marine organisms. Dissolved cobalt in seawater is mostly bound to organic ligands, and the prevailing assumption to date is that these ligands are cobalamin‐related compounds, yet the identity and impact of these ligands on cobalt ...

Intercomparison of phenological transition dates derived from the PhenoCam Dataset V1.0 and MODIS satellite remote sensing [PDF]

, 2018
Phenology is a valuable diagnostic of ecosystem health, and has applications to environmental monitoring and management. Here, we conduct an intercomparison analysis using phenological transition dates derived from near-surface PhenoCam imagery and MODIS

Satellite evidence for significant biophysical consequences of the “Grain for Green” Program on the Loess Plateau in China [PDF]

, 2014
Afforestation has been implemented worldwide as regional and national policies to address environmental problems and to improve ecosystem services. China\u27s central government launched the “Grain for Green” Program (GGP) in 1999 to increase forest ...

Bridging biodiversity and ecosystem services through useful plant species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global change endangers the terrestrial vegetation that sustains us. Therefore, policymakers need to make informed decisions about what and where to protect. However, with limited resources, we must decide whether to protect the intrinsic value of plants or their value to humans. Protecting both is possible.

Building synergies among ground‐based forest inventorying and monitoring networks to meet scientific, political and societal needs

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Ground‐based Inventorying and Monitoring programs are crucial for documenting long‐term forest responses to global change pressures, though there is limited coordination among them. We call for building synergies between different Inventorying and Monitoring programs, as well as community science and stakeholder engagement, to expand the temporal and ...

A multi-sensor data-driven methodology for all-sky passive microwave inundation retrieval [PDF]

, 2017
We present a multi-sensor Bayesian passive microwave retrieval algorithm for flood inundation mapping at high spatial and temporal resolutions. The algorithm takes advantage of observations from multiple sensors in optical, short-infrared, and microwave ...
