Community‐level egg and larval trait interactions with the Amazon River plume determine its role as a dispersal barrier

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The Amazon River plume (ARP) functions as a dynamic and porous biogeographic barrier whose permeability to larval dispersal depends on the interplay between species' biological traits and oceanographic processes. Using biophysical modeling combined with a dual analytical framework, namely a multivariate regression tree (MRT) and a generalized additive ...

Determination of Primary Spectral Bands for Remote Sensing of Aquatic Environments

open access: yesSensors, 2007
About 30 years ago, NASA launched the first ocean-color observing satellite:the Coastal Zone Color Scanner. CZCS had 5 bands in the visible-infrared domain with anobjective to detect changes of phytoplankton (measured by concentration of chlorophyll ...

The Use of VGPM to Estimate Oceanic Primary Production: A “Tango” Difficult to Dance

open access: yesJournal of Remote Sensing, 2022
One of the primary goals of launching an ocean color satellite is to obtain over the global ocean synoptic measurements of primary production (PP), a measure of phytoplankton photosynthesis.

Recent advances in multifunctional soft robots: A materials–structures–systems co‐design perspective for synergistic integration

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

Evaluation of satellite-based sea surface salinity derived from two distinct spectral domains over the coastal waters of the St. Lawrence Estuary and Gulf

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Brightness temperature is operationally used to retrieve sea surface salinity (TB-SSS) over the global ocean, but is contaminated by land and sea ice in close proximity.

Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.

Verification of aerosol models for satellite ocean color remote sensing [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1998
Direct atmospheric transmittance and sky radiance were measured spectrally at the coastal site of Scripps Institution of Oceanography pier in La Jolla, California, during the winters of 1993 and 1994. Direct atmospheric transmittance was also measured aboard R/V Wecoma and on Catalina Island during the 1994 California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries ...

Tracking Summer Greenland Blocking: The Upstream Pathway Shapes Historical Extremes and Future Change

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigates summer Greenland atmospheric blocking using the Lagrangian tracking Python package blocktrack applied to ERA5 reanalysis and CMIP6 models. Two types of blocks—upstream (Northern Canada origin) and retrograding (Northern Atlantic origin)—are distinguished, with upstream blocks driving recent observed frequency increasing trends ...
