THE OCEANOGRAPHY CLASSROOM. How to Run Amok—Or Is It a MOOC? [PDF]
Oceanography, 2014 An email comes through from my Head of Department: "Simon, are you getting involved in the Exploring Our Ocean MOOC this year? You don't want to miss out!" I try to figure out whether this is a typo and also what it is that I don't want to miss out on ...

Error investigation of rain retrievals from disdrometer data using triple colocation
Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 This work aims to provide error estimates of three in‐situ precipitation sources applying the triple colocation statistical method. The latter has the enviable advantage to succeed in characterizing the uncertainties of co‐located measurements being compared each other, without requiring the knowledge of the true value, which is often unknown.

Distinct response of near surface air temperature to clouds in North China
Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Cloud weakens Tmax and increases Tmin, and thus decreases daily temperature range (DTR), which is mainly due to the blocking effects of clouds to downwelling solar radiation and trapping effects to upwelling longwave radiation. However, the relative impacts of clouds on Tmax and Tmin vary with locations, with relatively stronger impact on Tmin and DTR ...

The physical oceanography of the transport of floating marine debris
Environmental Research Letters, 2020 Marine plastic debris floating on the ocean surface is a major environmental problem. However, its distribution in the ocean is poorly mapped, and most of the plastic waste estimated to have entered the ocean from land is unaccounted for.

Upper‐level midlatitude troughs in boreal winter have an amplified low‐latitude linkage over Africa
Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Composite mean anomaly of 850‐hPa temperature at 10–15° N 2 days after the strongest midlatitude upper‐level trough days. The troughs are located at the longitude shown on the x‐axis, and the temperature is measured 16.5° longitude downstream (east) of the trough. Black dots indicate statistical significance.

Evolutionary Divergence of Marinobacter Strains in Cryopeg Brines as Revealed by Pangenomics
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Marinobacter spp. are cosmopolitan in saline environments, displaying a diverse set of metabolisms that allow them to competitively occupy these environments, some of which can be extreme in both salinity and temperature.

Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 We report on a meeting on progress and challenges in convection‐permitting data assimilation. Novel developments include the assimilation of novel observations such as cloud‐affected satellite radiances, ground‐based profiling networks and aircraft data, as well as methodological advancements in error covariance modelling, and progress in operational ...

Primary characteristics of the extreme heavy rainfall event over Henan in July 2021
Atmospheric Science Letters, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 China is located in the East Asian monsoon region, which experiences relatively frequent heavy rainfall events in summer. Generally, the heavy rainfall frequency and accumulated amount in South China are higher than those of North China, whereas, the intensity of heavy rainfall in North China is similar to or even higher than that of South China.
