The Maxwell Effect and the Material Transport by Transient Eddies

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
Mesoscale eddies—irregular time‐dependent currents with lateral scales of 10–200 km—are ubiquitous in the World Ocean. They profoundly affect general circulation and actively redistribute oceanic heat, salt, biogeochemical tracers, and pollutants.

Utopia, Heterotopia, Dystopia – Water in Portuguese and Brazilian comics

open access: yesBrasiliana: Journal for Brazilian Studies, 2017
The article tends to analyze several comics from the Portuguese-speaking world regarding the symbolic functions of water within the stories. Therefore, the text picks on the ideas of the Brazilian philosopher Vilém Flusser about mutual interference of ...

Des océans indigestes : l’émergence de l’eutrophisation côtière comme problème environnemental global

open access: yesVertigO, 2021
Despite harmful impacts on coastal communities and biodiversity for a few decades, eutrophication of marine systems only recently gained public visibility.

Globally significant oceanic source of organic carbon aerosol

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2008
Significant concentrations of organic carbon (OC) aerosol are observed at three oceanic surface sites (Amsterdam Island, Azores and Mace Head). Two global chemical transport models (CTMs) underpredict OC concentrations at these sites (normalised mean ...

Landsat-8 Observations of Foam Coverage under Fetch-Limited Wave Development

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
In this paper, we aimed to clarify the problem of foam coverage dependence on wave fetch, which is of interest in satellite microwave radiometry, but for which controversial results were reported previously.

Improving Near‐Surface Retrievals of Surface Humidity Over the Global Open Oceans From Passive Microwave Observations

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2019
Ocean evaporative fluxes are a critical component of the Earth's energy and water cycle, but their estimation remains uncertain. Near‐surface humidity is a required input to bulk flux algorithms that relate mean surface values to the turbulent fluxes ...

Recommendations for Plankton Measurements on OceanSITES Moorings With Relevance to Other Observing Sites

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Measuring plankton and associated variables as part of ocean time-series stations has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of ocean biology and ecology and their ties to ocean biogeochemistry.

Retrieval of Surface Air Specific Humidity Over the Ocean Using AMSR-E Measurements

open access: yesSensors, 2008
We have developed a new algorithm to estimate the surface air specific humidity over the ocean from AMSR-E data. It should be noted that remarkably reduced random errors of the estimated surface air specific humidity result from using the surface air ...

Low Latency Global Carbon Budget Reveals Late 2024 Carbon Losses and Contrasting Early 2025 Land Sink Recovery Signals. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Low latency carbon budget estimates for July 2024–June 2025 combine atmospheric CO2 growth rates, fossil emissions, ocean uptake, DGVM land fluxes, and OCO‐2 inversions. The budget shows that late‐2024 land carbon losses dominate the annual anomaly, while early‐2025 recovery differs between bottom‐up models and top‐down inversions, especially in ...
