A General Methodology for Beached Oil Spill Hazard Mapping.
(2020)
The current lack of a standardized approach to compute the coastal oil spill hazard
due to maritime traffic accidental releases has hindered an accurate estimate of its
global impact, which is paramount to manage and ...
Wind–Wave Modeling: Where We Are, Where to Go.
(2020)
We perform a critical analysis of the present approach in wave modeling and of the
related results. While acknowledging the good quality of the best present forecasts, we point out the
limitations that appear when we ...
Characterization of Extreme Wave Conditions for Wave Energy Converter Design and Project Risk Assessment.
(2020)
Best practices and international standards for determining n-year return period extreme
wave (sea states) conditions allow wave energy converter designers and project developers the
option to apply simple univariate or ...
Best Practices on High Frequency Radar Deployment and Operation for Ocean Current Measurement.
(2020)
High Frequency Radar (HFR) technology refers to land based remote sensing
instruments capable of measuring surface currents and ocean waves at ranges up to
200 km or more. HFR technology is widely acknowledged as a ...
Toward a Harmonization for Using in situ Nutrient Sensors in the Marine Environment.
(2020)
Improved comparability of nutrient concentrations in seawater is required to enhance the
quality and utility of measurements reported to global databases. Significant progress
has been made over recent decades in improving ...
Guideline of ocean observations, Volumes 1-10. 4th edition.
(The Oceanographic Society of Japan, Tokyo, Japan, 2020)
The Oceanographic Society of Japan published the first edition of Guideline of Ocean Observations in September 2015 with an overview of oceanographic observations and the latest oceanographic and analytical methods. This ...
Best Practices for Shale Core Handling: Transportation, Sampling and Storage for Conduction of Analyses.
(2020)
Drill core shale samples are critical for palaeoenvironmental studies and potential hydrocarbon reservoirs. They need to be preserved carefully to maximise their retention of reservoir condition properties. However, they ...
Reconstructing Global Chlorophyll-a Variations Using a Non-linear Statistical Approach.
(2020)
Monitoring the spatio-temporal variations of surface chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl, a
proxy of phytoplankton biomass) greatly benefited from the availability of continuous and
global ocean color satellite measurements ...
A Regional Neural Network Approach to Estimate Water-Column Nutrient Concentrations and Carbonate System Variables in the Mediterranean Sea: CANYON-MED.
(2020)
A regional neural network-based method, “CANYON-MED” is developed to estimate nutrients and carbonate system variables specifically in the Mediterranean Sea over the water column from pressure, temperature, ...
Monitoring protocol for coastal reefs. Version 1.0.
(The Long-term Ecological Research Program Coastal Habitats of Espírito Santo (LTER HCES), Vitória, Brazil, 2020)
The aim of this protocol is to elucidate the methodology and rationale applied in the Long-Term Research Program for Coastal Habitats in Espírito Santo to monitor marine biodiversity in coastal reefs of the Eastern Brazil ...
