Mesoscale eddies occurring in the world’s oceans typically exist in pairs known as mesoscale dipole eddies or simply dipole eddies. Tropical cyclones (hereafter TCs) that move over the world’s oceans often encounter and interact with these dipole eddies.

Estimating tropical forest biomass with a combination of SAR image texture and Landsat TM data:an assessment of predictions between regions [PDF]
Quantifying the above ground biomass of tropical forests is critical for understanding the dynamics of carbon fluxes between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere, as well as monitoring ecosystem responses to environmental change.

Constraining local UV field geometry at reionization using Milky Way satellites
We present a new semi-analytical model of the population of satellite galaxies of the Milky Way, aimed at estimating the effect of the geometry of reionization at galaxy scale on the properties of the satellites. In this model reionization can be either:

Satellite laser ranging to GPS and GLONASS [PDF]
Satellite laser ranging (SLR) to the satellites of the global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) provides substantial and valuable information about the accuracy and quality of GNSS orbits and allows for the SLR-GNSS co-location in space.

SATELLITE DIGITAL DATA ANALYSIS FOR SOIL PROPERTIES PREDICTION AND MAPPING UNITS OF BARE DESERT SOIL, EGYPT [PDF]
This study was carried out to predict some surface soil properties and mapping units of some bare desert soil throught the analysis of satellite digital data. Spatial variability of some surface soil properties was studied using coefficients of variation

The inclination I of an Earth’s satellite in polar orbit undergoes a secular De Sitter precession of $$-\,7.6$$ -7.6 milliarcseconds per year for a suitable choice of the initial value of its non-circulating node $$\Omega $$ Ω .

Energy and pitch-angle dispersions of LLBL/cusp ions seen at middle altitudes: predictions by the open magnetosphere model [PDF]
Numerical simulations are presented of the ion distribution functions seen by middle-altitude spacecraft in the low-latitude boundary layer (LLBL) and cusp regions when reconnection is, or has recently been, taking place at the equatorial magnetopause.

The Madagascar Bloom – a serendipitous study [PDF]
The late austral summer (February-April) phytoplankton bloom that occurs east of Madagascar exhibits significant interannual variability and at its largest extent covers ~1% of the world’s ocean surface area.

On the shape of sea level anomaly signal on periphery of mesoscale ocean eddies
Good knowledge of mesoscale eddy properties and their spatial and temporal distribution in the world ocean is important for an accurate estimate of their role in heat, salt, and/or momentum transports.
