Impact of atmospheric rivers on coastal oceanographic conditions off central-southern Chile [PDF]
Scientific ReportsAtmospheric Rivers (ARs) are key drivers of extreme precipitation and hydrological variability along the west coasts of continents. While many studies have focused on their atmospheric impacts, the oceanographic response remains underexplored.

Intercomparison case study of data-driven reconstructions of a cloud-obscured Saharan dust plume in Europe [PDF]
Scientific ReportsOn 15 March 2022 an intense, but partially cloud-obscured, Saharan dust plume was transported towards Europe by an atmospheric river. Ten-year statistics of dust plumes co-occurring with cloud cover over Europe highlights that regionally up to 100% of ...

Are Periodic Oscillations of Sea Surface Height Inherent to River Plumes?
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 We analyze high temporal resolution (10 min) sea surface height (SSH) data records from pressure sensors deployed on the inner shelf within the plumes of the Mzymta and the Vulan, two small-to-medium size rivers in the Russian sector of the Black Sea ...

Remote Sensing, 2022 The Northeast Caucasian Current (NCC) is the northeastern part of the cyclonic Rim Current (RC) in the Black Sea. As it sometimes approaches the narrow shelf very closely, topographically generated cyclonic eddies (TGEs) can be triggered.

Modeling the interannual variability in Maipo and Rapel river plumes off central Chile [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2023 River plumes have a direct influence on coastal environments, impacting coastal planktonic and benthic communities, including fishery resources. In general, the main drivers of river plume dynamics are the river discharge and the alongshore wind stress ...

Influence of the Coriolis Force on Spreading of River Plumes
Remote Sensing, 2023 Wind is the main external force that governs the spreading of river plumes in the sea. Many previous studies demonstrated that the spreading direction of river plumes (especially small plumes) generally coincides with wind direction.

High-resolution satellite turbidity and sea surface temperature observations of river plume interactions during a significant flood event [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2015 Sea surface temperature (SST) and turbidity (T) derived from Landsat 8 (L8) imagery were used to characterize river plumes in the northern Adriatic Sea (NAS) during a significant flood event in November 2014. Circulation patterns and sea surface salinity

Remote Sensing, 2021 Large rivers are key components of the land-ocean branch of the global water and biogeochemical cycles. River discharges can have important influences on physical, biological, optical, and chemical processes in coastal oceans.
