Effects of Wind, Waves, and Currents on Icebergs and Surface Floats in the Labrador Sea: A Modeling Study

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
This article presents a model study of the dynamics of icebergs and surface floats in the Labrador Sea. The model was forced with data on the wind above the ocean surface, surface waves, and ocean currents. These data were obtained from the reanalysis of

Dual-Polarized Backscatter Features of Surface Currents in the Open Ocean during Typhoon Lan (2017)

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Ocean surface current measurements from satellites have historically been limited. We propose a new approach to detect ocean surface currents as observed by dual-polarized (VV and VH) spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR).

Safety-Critical Control of Autonomous Surface Vehicles in the Presence of Ocean Currents

open access: yesConference on Control Technology and Applications, 2020
Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) are safety-critical systems that must provide strict safety guarantees such as collision avoidance to enable fully autonomous operations.

Frictional effects in wind-driven ocean currents

open access: yes, 2020
Surface ocean currents have a significant influence on the climate and their dynamics depend to a large extent on the behaviour of the vertical eddy viscosity.

Ocean currents and the population genetic signature of fish migrations.

open access: yesEcology, 2020
Animal migrations are a fascinating and global phenomenon, yet they are often difficult to study and sometimes poorly understood. Here, we build on classic ecological theory by hypothesizing that some enigmatic spawning migrations across ocean habitats ...

Modelling the impact of flow-driven turbine power plants on great wind-driven ocean currents and the assessment of their energy potential

open access: yes, 2020
The persistence in the strength and direction of western boundary great ocean currents suggests that flow-driven turbines implemented in these currents have great potential for energy exploitation.

A Low-Cost, Open-Source, Multi-Purpose Autonomous Surface Vehicle

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) have played a crucial role in various areas, including oceanographic research, environmental monitoring, and asset inspection. However, the high cost and proprietary nature of many platforms limit accessibility.

Real-time Reconstruction of Surface Velocities from Satellite Observations in the Alboran Sea

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Surface currents in the Alboran Sea are characterized by a very fast evolution that is not well captured by altimetric maps due to sampling limitations. On the contrary, satellite infrared measurements provide high resolution synoptic images of the ocean

Observations of Upwelling and Downwelling Around Antarctica Mediated by Sea Ice

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
We infer circumpolar maps of stress imparted to the ocean by the wind, mediated by sea-ice, in and around the Seasonal Ice Zone (SIZ) of Antarctica. In the open ocean we compute the wind stress using surface winds from daily atmospheric reanalyses and ...
