The reinvigoration of the Southern Ocean carbon sink [PDF]
, 2015 Several studies have suggested that the carbon sink in the Southern Ocean—the ocean’s strongest region for the uptake of anthropogenic CO2 —has weakened in recent decades.

Global ocean reanalysis CORA2 and its inter comparison with a set of other reanalysis products
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 We present the China Ocean ReAnalysis version 2 (CORA2) in this paper. We compare CORA2 with its predecessor, CORA1, and with other ocean reanalysis products created between 2004 and 2019 [GLORYS12v1 (Global Ocean reanalysis and Simulation), HYCOM ...

Remote Sensing, 2020 Copernicus Sentinel-3 Surface Topography Mission embarks a two-channel microwave radiometer combined with the altimeter in order to correct the altimeter range for the excess path delay resulting from the presence of water vapour in the troposphere.

, 2018 Ocean reanalyses are becoming increasingly available and useful, and may eventually attract a similar applications base as atmospheric reanalyses. Here we look at how they are being evaluated against both assimilated and independent data, and emphasise that circulation and transport estimates are critical.

Earth 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 ...

Sensitivity of Altimeter Wave Height Assessment to Data Selection
Remote Sensing, 2020 This paper addresses the issue of how the selection of buoys and the calculation of altimeter averages affect the metrics characterising the errors of altimetric wave height estimates.

Hypsometry and Volume of the Arctic Ocean and Its Constituent Seas [PDF]
, 2002 This paper presents an analysis of the Arctic Ocean and its constituent seas for seafloor area distribution versus depth and ocean volume. The bathymetry from the International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) is used together with limits ...

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

A Preindustrial Sea‐Level Rise Hotspot Along the Atlantic Coast of North America
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 The Atlantic coast of North America north of Cape Hatteras has been proposed as a “hotspot” of late 20th century sea‐level rise. Here we test, using salt‐marsh proxy sea‐level records, if this coast experienced enhanced sea‐level rise over earlier ...
