Oceanic productivity and high-frequency temperature variability—not human habitation—supports calcifier abundance on central Pacific coral reefs

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Past research has demonstrated how local-scale human impacts—including reduced water quality, overfishing, and eutrophication—adversely affect coral reefs. More recently, global-scale shifts in ocean conditions arising from climate change have been shown

New Radiometric Approaches to Compute Underwater Irradiances: Potential Applications for High-Resolution and Citizen Science-Based Water Quality Monitoring Programs

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Measuring the diffuse attenuation coefficient (Kd) allows for monitoring the water body’s environmental status. This parameter is of particular interest in water quality monitoring programs because it quantifies the presence of light and the euphotic ...

A Primer on the Vertical Lagrangian‐Remap Method in Ocean Models Based on Finite Volume Generalized Vertical Coordinates

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
This paper provides a primer on the mathematical, physical, and numerical foundations of ocean models that are formulated using finite volume generalized vertical coordinate equations and that use the vertical Lagrangian‐remap method to evolve the ocean ...

Using Saildrones to Validate Satellite-Derived Sea Surface Salinity and Sea Surface Temperature along the California/Baja Coast

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Traditional ways of validating satellite-derived sea surface temperature (SST) and sea surface salinity (SSS) products by comparing with buoy measurements, do not allow for evaluating the impact of mesoscale-to-submesoscale variability.

Reduction of Rain-Induced Errors for Wind Speed Estimation on SAR Observations Using Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2023
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is known to be able to provide high-resolution estimates of surface wind speed. These estimates usually rely on a geophysical model function (GMF) that has difficulties accounting for nonwind processes, such as rain events.

Physical oceanography [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The physical oceanography component of the AMLR program provides information on the hydrography of the upper water column with the objective of assessing its influence on the observed distribution of krill (Euphausia superba).
