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

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

Equipping smart coasts with marine water quality IoT sensors
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].
