The impact of rainfall on the sea surface salinity: a mesocosm study. [PDF]
Sci RepAbstractSea surface salinity may serve as a tracer for freshwater fluxes because it is linked to evaporation and precipitation that force the freshwater balance of the ocean’s surface. The relationship between freshwater fluxes and salinity anomalies in the upper few centimeters remains widely unknown.

Overview of the SMOS Sea Surface Salinity Prototype Processor [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2008 25 pages, 17 figures, 7 tables, 2 appendices The L-band interferometric radiometer onboard the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity mission will measure polarized brightness temperatures (Tb). The measurements are affected by strong radiometric noise. However, during a satellite overpass, numerous measurements are acquired at various incidence angles at ...

Sea Surface Salinity Variability in the Bering Sea in 2015–2020 [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2022 Salinity in the Bering Sea is vital for the physical environment that is tied to the productive ecosystem and the properties of Pacific waters transported to the Arctic Ocean. Its salinity variability reflects many fundamental processes, including sea ice formation/melting and river runoff, but its spatial and temporal characteristics require better ...

Assessment of Aquarius Sea Surface Salinity [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2018 Aquarius was the first NASA satellite to observe the sea surface salinity (SSS) over the global ocean. The mission successfully collected data from 25 August 2011 to 7 June 2015. The Aquarius project released its final version (Version-5) of the SSS data product in December 2017. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the validation results from the

Evaluation of sea surface salinity observed by Aquarius [PDF]
2012 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2012 Sea surface salinity data derived from Aquarius on the SAC-D satellite were compared with observations by Argo floats in the global oceans to evaluate the quality of the Aquarius salinity measurement and assess the error structure in the data. In tropical and mid latitudes, salinity observed by Aquarius agreed well the Argo data with an rms difference ...

Sea Surface Salinity Short Term Variability in the Tropics [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2021 Abstract. Using data from the Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array we study the validation process for satellite measurement of sea surface salinity (SSS). We compute short-term variability (STV) of SSS, variability on time scales of 5–14 days. It is meant to be a proxy for subfootprint variability as seen by a satellite measuring SSS.

Relationship between chlorophyll-a, sea surface temperature, and sea surface salinity
Global Journal of Environmental Science and Management, 2023 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the long-term relationship between chlorophyll-a, sea surface temperature, and sea surface salinity monthly from January 2015 to December 2021. It was carried out in the Northern Bay of Bengal, which experiences extreme monsoons, in the southwest monsoon and northeast monsoon from June to ...

Global Analysis of Coastal Gradients of Sea Surface Salinity [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2021 Sea surface salinity (SSS) is a key variable for ocean–atmosphere interactions and the water cycle. Due to its climatic importance, increasing efforts have been made for its global in situ observation, and dedicated satellite missions have been launched more recently to allow homogeneous coverage at higher resolution. Cross-shore SSS gradients can bear
