The Effect of Milankovitch Variations in Insolation on Equatorial Seasonality [PDF]
Although the sun crosses the equator 2 times per year at the equinoxes, at times in the past the equatorial insolation has had only one maximum and one minimum throughout the seasonal cycle because of Milankovitch orbital variations.

Surface Layer Salinity of Young Sea Ice [PDF]
The high-salinity surface layer of young sea ice was subjected to field and laboratory experiments. Artificial pools, in which young ice was formed, were opened within a fast-ice sheet in the Saroma lagoon, Hokkaido, in February of 1983 and 1984. The salinity of 1 mm thick surface layer of the young ice was observed as high as 42.4‰, which exceeds the ...

Southern California winter precipitation variability reflected in 100-year ocean salinity record
Rainfall in southern California is highly variable, with some fluctuations explainable by climate patterns. Resulting runoff and heightened streamflow from rain events introduces freshwater plumes into the coastal ocean.

Harmonic analysis of climatological sea surface salinity [PDF]
A Fourier decomposition of the World Ocean Atlas 1998 (WOA98) fields of climatological monthly mean salinity is used to describe the annual cycle of sea surface salinity (SSS). Global data sets of river runoff and evaporation minus precipitation (E−P) are used to put the annual cycle of SSS in the context of the global climate system. Most of the world

The Multifrequency Future for Remote Sensing of Sea Surface Salinity from Space
Passive microwave remote sensing of sea surface salinity from space is done with measurements in the 27 MHz wide spectral window at 1.413 GHz (L-band) which is protected for passive use only.

Observational data on ocean subsurface temperature and salinity are patently insufficient because in situ observations are complex and costly, while satellite remote-sensed measurements are abundant but mainly focus on sea surface data.

Sea Surface Salinity with SMOS
The mission to observe the Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) from the space is not really new because it has been started from long time ago. The first mission was the Skylab which used a 1.4 GHz microwave radiometer in 1970’s. But this mission is still not as comprehensive as other missions which observe such as Sea Surface Temperature (SST), Sea Surface ...
