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

River inflow and salinity changes in the Caspian Sea during the last 5500 years [PDF]

, 2007
Pollen, spores and dinoflagellate cysts have been analysed on three sediment cores (1.8–1.4 m-long) taken from the south and middle basins of the Caspian Sea.

The impact of rainfall on the sea surface salinity: a mesocosm study. [PDF]

Sci Rep
AbstractSea 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.

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 ...

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.

Climatic, Decadal, and Interannual Variability in the Upper Layer of the Mediterranean Sea Using Remotely Sensed and In-Situ Data

Remote Sensing, 2022
The Mediterranean Sea is considered a hot spot of global warming because it has been changing faster than the global ocean, creating a strong impact on the marine environment.

New organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts from recent sediments of central Asian seas [PDF]

, 2004
Recent to sub-recent sediments from the Caspian Sea, the Kara-Bogaz-Gol Bay, the Enseli lake and the Aral Sea contain the new organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts Caspidinium, Caspidinium rugosum and Impagidinium caspienense.

Variability of alkalinity and the alkalinity-salinity relationship in the tropical and subtropical surface ocean [PDF]

, 2014
The variability of total alkalinity (TA) and its relationship with salinity in the tropical and subtropical surface ocean were examined using data collected in various marine environments from a ship of opportunity.

Optimal surface salinity perturbations of the meridional overturning and heat transport in a global ocean general circulation model [PDF]

, 2008
Recent observations and modeling studies have stressed the influence of surface salinity perturbations on the North Atlantic circulation over the past few decades.
