Ocean Meteorological Observations [PDF]
I PRESUME that anyone looking at the chart on page 43 of this week's NATURE, or reflecting on the circumstances under which barometric observations at sea are ordinarily taken, will agree with me that it would be wiser to give only two places of decimals, and not indicate a degree of refinement which the observations do not warrant.

Ocean observing systems demystified
An ocean observing system could be defined as a set of independent elements that interact to form a whole for the purpose of observing ocean data. But, what is a system? Is a sensor a system? Is a buoy a system? Is a collection of stations a system?

Global oceanic emission of ammonia: constraints from seawater and atmospheric observations [PDF]
Current global inventories of ammonia emissions identify the ocean as the largest natural source. This source depends on seawater pH, temperature, and the concentration of total seawater ammonia (NHx(sw)), which reflects a balance between ...

The role of wind gusts in upper ocean diurnal variability [PDF]
Upper ocean processes play a key role in air-sea coupling, with variability on both short and long time scales. The diurnal cycle associated with diurnal solar insolation and nighttime cooling, may act, along with stochastic wind variability, on upper ...

Ocean monitoring, observation network and modelling of the Gulf of Mexico by CIGOM
The tragic accident of the Macondo platform operated by British Petroleum (BP) unleashed in 2010 one of the largest oil spills in history, lasting over three months, spilling nearly 500 million liters of oil in one of the most biodiverse ocean regions ...

Atmospheric response to observed intraseasonal tropical sea surface temperature anomalies [PDF]
The major tropical convective and circulation features of the intraseasonal or Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) are simulated as a passive response to observed MJO sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM),
