Synergies in Operational Oceanography: The Intrinsic Need for Sustained Ocean Observations

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Operational oceanography can be described as the provision of routine oceanographic information needed for decision-making purposes. It is dependent upon sustained research and development through the end-to-end framework of an operational service, from ...

Correcting Breaks in Temperature and Humidity Observations: Implications for Climate Variability Analysis in Austria

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
A 2‐h shift in the timing of evening observations in 1971 resulted in a discontinuity in the estimation of daily means of air temperature and humidity across all climate stations in Austria. This study employs hourly observations to, for the first time, comprehensively quantify and correct this break.

Recovery at Morvin: SERPENT final report [PDF]

, 2010
Recovery from disturbance is poorly understood in deep water, but the extent of anthropogenic impacts is becoming increasingly well documented. We used Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV) to visually assess the change in benthic habitat after exploratory ...

Spatiotemporal characteristics and mechanisms of upper water exchange between the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal in the North Indian Ocean

Frontiers in Marine Science
The distribution of upper water masses and water exchange processes in the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal have important implications for the dynamics, thermal structure, and associated air-sea interactions in the North Indian Ocean.

Severity of Compound Precipitation and Temperature Extreme Events Over Africa at 1.5°C and 2°C Global Warming Levels

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Results indicate that, an increase in global warming level from 1.5°C to 2°C is likely to induce on the one hand a 3‐fold increase in the frequency of occurrence of dry and warm compound events, and on the other hand a 2‐fold increase in their duration, over West, Central, South‐West, and South‐East Africa, intensifying droughts through reduced ...

Applications of ISES for the oceans [PDF]

The need in oceanography for direct broadcast, why, and what type are discussed. Four reasons for support exist: need for real-time observations in support of field studies; need to back up point failures; need for experimentation with onboard processing

Synchronisation of Extreme Precipitation and Sea Surface Temperature Events in the Northern Hemisphere: A Complex Network Approach

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using complex network theory and event synchronisation, we find distinct spatiotemporal structures of extreme precipitation and sea surface temperature events across the Northern Hemisphere. Our results show strong local and long‐range connectivity in terrestrial extremes, driven by atmospheric dynamics, contrasting with more localised marine extremes ...

Utilising Benford's Law in the Validation of Precipitation Datasets

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates Benford's Law as a robust diagnostic tool for precipitation data integrity. Global monthly precipitation consistently conforms to the law, regardless of origin, while regional data requires appropriate temporal granularity for adherence.

The role of ocean climate data in operational Naval oceanography [PDF]

Local application of global-scale models describes the U.S. Navy's basic philosophy for operational oceanography in support of fleet operations. Real-time data, climatologies, coupled air/ocean models, and large scale computers are the essential ...
