EXTRACTION OF BLUE ICE AREA USING ALBEDO VALUE DERIVED FROM LANDSAT-8 SATELLITE DATA [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018
Blue Ice Areas (BIAs) or bare ice areas are zones of glacier where surface mass balance is negative, sublimation forms the major ablation process and surface albedo is relatively small.

On the control of spatial and temporal oceanic scales by existing and future observing systems: An observing system simulation experiment approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Ocean monitoring and forecasting systems combine information from ocean observations and numerical models through advanced data assimilation techniques. They are essential to monitor and report on past, present and future oceanic conditions.

Building the Knowledge-to-Action Pipeline in North America: Connecting Ocean Acidification Research and Actionable Decision Support

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Ocean acidification (OA) describes the progressive decrease in the pH of seawater and other cascading chemical changes resulting from oceanic uptake of atmospheric carbon. These changes can have important implications for marine ecosystems, creating risk

Observations of Sargassum carbon influx and biogeochemical impact in La Parguera Marine Reserve

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The massive influx of pelagic Sargassum spp. species, also known as Sargassum inundation events (SIEs), first arrived at the Caribbean’s coastal waters in 2011. These events have been linked to hypoxia, among other ecological disturbances.

Economic Considerations in the Design of Ocean Observing Systems [PDF]

open access: yesOceanography, 2009
Recent work on the potential economic value of improved coastal ocean observing capabilities suggests that aggregate values of better ocean observing system information for all US waters could be in the hundreds of millions of dollars per year.

Evolving the Physical Global Ocean Observing System for Research and Application Services Through International Coordination

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Climate change and variability are major societal challenges, and the ocean is an integral part of this complex and variable system. Key to the understanding of the ocean’s role in the Earth’s climate system is the study of ocean and sea-ice physical ...

Equipping smart coasts with marine water quality IoT sensors

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2020
Ocean acidification, the decrease in seawater pH as a result of increasing carbon dioxide, has been shown to be an important driver of oyster mortality in West Coast shellfisheries [1].
