ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Waveform Aliasing in Satellite Radar Altimetry
The full deramp pulse compression scheme employed by satellite radar altimeters digitizes each radar echo at a sampling rate matched to the chirp bandwidth. Echo power is undersampled by a factor of 2 when the power samples are simply obtained by squaring the magnitude of the echo samples, without first resampling, as is done in all altimeters to date.

Forecasting Climate Change Using a Multivariate Cointegrated System
ABSTRACT A cointegrated vector equilibrium correction model of key climate variables including sea surface temperature, ocean heat content, Arctic sea‐ice extent and sea‐level change is built, driven by radiative forcing in which a stochastic trend arises due to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases.

Can satellite altimetry observe coastally trapped waves on sub-monthly timescales? [PDF]
Coastally trapped waves (CTWs) are a major cause of sub-seasonal coastal sea level variability. While they have mostly been studied using numerical models, observational evidence is limited due to the sparse spatial coverage of the tide gauge network and

ABSTRACT Oceanographic and ecological conditions can be used to inform forecasts and decision‐making for marine resources, but the dominant drivers of recruitment variability remain poorly understood for many fish stocks. We developed a conceptual life‐history model of the oceanographic and ecological variables that influence the recruitment of ...

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite provides a groundbreaking view of sea surface height (SSH) across a 120‐km‐wide swath (20‐km nadir gap), opening new opportunities to reconstruct vertical velocities (w) $(w)$. Vertical motions play a central role in redistributing properties, influencing climate and ecosystems. Using the

Abstract Mesoscale eddies are crucial for global heat and tracer transport, yet the mechanisms underlying their meridional movement remain unclear. Here, we combine satellite observations, idealized numerical experiments, and theoretical modeling to investigate these mechanisms. We demonstrate that the meridional eddy movement is strongly linked to the

Abstract Satellite altimetry is advantageous for measuring water surface elevations (WSE) globally. However, biases of time series can be caused by uneven water surfaces, as nadir pointing measurements are often collected at different locations across a lake.

Use of the 3D radon transform to examine the properties of oceanic Rossby waves [PDF]
One of the most successful applications of satellite-borne radar altimeter data over the oceans in recent years has been the extraction of information about long-wavelength baroclinic Rossby (or planetary) waves, which play a significant role in ocean ...
