Hurricane-Induced Oceanic Carbon Changes in the Upper Ocean
Changes in marine carbon cycling due to hurricanes with different intensity and translation speeds have not been systematically investigated. This study uses an idealized coupled physical-biogeochemical model and a suite of model sensitivity analyses to ...

Seasonal forecasting of subsurface marine heatwaves
Marine heatwaves damage marine ecosystems and services, with effects identified mostly below the ocean surface. To create a truly user-relevant detection system, it is necessary to provide subsurface forecasts.

Sea state bias in altimeter sea level estimates determined by combining wave model and satellite data [PDF]
This study documents a method for increasing the precision of satellite-derived sea level measurements. Results are achieved using an enhanced three-dimensional (3-D) sea state bias (SSB) correction model derived from both Jason-1 altimeter ocean ...

The Loop Current (LC), which is the main mesoscale dynamic feature of the Gulf of Mexico (GoM), has a major impact on the circulation and its variability in the interior Gulf. The LC is a highly variable and dynamic feature. It changes shape from a short

Modeling the ocean and atmosphere during an extreme bora event in northern Adriatic using one-way and two-way atmosphere–ocean coupling [PDF]
We have studied the performances of (a) a two-way coupled atmosphere–ocean modeling system and (b) one-way coupled ocean model (forced by the atmosphere model), as compared to the available in situ measurements during and after a strong Adriatic bora ...

Microplastics in the Mediterranean: Variability From Observations and Model Analysis
In this study, the abundance and properties (size, shape, and polymer type) of microplastics (MPs) in sea surface water samples, collected during two sampling campaigns over 2018–2019, in four coastal areas of the Mediterranean Sea (Saronikos Gulf ...

Evaporites and the salinity of the ocean during the Phanerozoic: Implications for climate, ocean circulation and life [PDF]
A compilation of data on volumes and masses of evaporite deposits is used as the basis for reconstruction of the salinity of the ocean in the past.

Sensitivity of a Coarse‐Resolution Global Ocean Model to a Spatially Variable Neutral Diffusivity
Motivated by recent advances in mapping mesoscale eddy tracer mixing in the ocean we evaluate the sensitivity of a coarse‐resolution global ocean model to a spatially variable neutral diffusion coefficient κn(x, y, z).

Modelling Neutron-Star Ocean Dynamics
We revisit the calculation of mode oscillations in the ocean of a rotating neutron star, which may be excited during thermonuclear X-ray bursts. Our present theoretical understanding of ocean modes relies heavily on the traditional approximation commonly employed in geophysics. The approximation elegantly decouples the radial and angular sectors of the
