OMIP contribution to CMIP6: experimental and diagnostic protocol for the physical component of the Ocean Model Intercomparison Project.
(2016)
The Ocean Model Intercomparison Project(OMIP) is an endorsed project in the Coupled Model In-tercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6). OMIP addressesCMIP6 science questions, investigating the origins ...
Statement of guidance for ocean applications.
(National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center (NMEFC) for WMO-JCOMM, Beijing, China, 2016)
This Statement of Guidance (SoG) was developed, through a process of
consultation, to document observational data requirements for ocean applications
and the present/planned observing capabilities. This version is based ...
Protocol for Microplastics Sampling on the Sea Surface and Sample Analysis. [video article]
(2016)
Microplastic pollution in the marine environment is a scientific topic that has received increasing attention over the last decade. The majority of
scientific publications address microplastic pollution of the sea surface. ...
Evaluation of an acoustic remote sensing method for frontal-zone studies using double-diffusive instability microstructure data and density interface data from intrusions.
(2016)
Understanding intrusive exchange at oceanic water mass fronts may depend on building data-constrained models of the processes, but obtaining the needed representative and comprehensive data is challenging. Acoustic imaging ...
Best Practices for Fine-tuning Visual Classifiers to New Domains.
(Springer, Switzerland, 2016)
Recent studies have shown that features from deep convolutional neural networks learned using large labeled datasets, like ImageNet, provide effective representations for a variety of visual recognition
tasks. They achieve ...
Metrological challenges for measurements of key climatological observables: Oceanic salinity and pH, and atmospheric humidity. Part 1: Overview.
(2016)
Water in its three ambient phases plays the central thermodynamic role in the terrestrial climate
system. Clouds control Earth’s radiation balance, atmospheric water vapour is the strongest
“greenhouse” gas, and ...
In situ quantification of ultra-low O2 concentrations in oxygen minimum zones: Application of novel optodes.
(2016)
Conventional sensors for the quantification of O2 availability in aquatic environments typically have limits of detection (LOD) of > 1 μmol L−1 and do not have sufficient resolution to reliably measure concentrations in ...
Design and Application of an Optical Sensor for Simultaneous Imaging of pH and Dissolved O2 with Low Cross-Talk.
(2016)
Visualization and quantification of analytes such as O2 or pH is essential in biological research. Here we present the design and application of a new optical dual-analyte sensor for imaging, optimized to have low ...
Next-generation biology: Sequencing and data analysis approaches fornon-model organisms.
(2016)
As sequencing technologies become more affordable, it is now realistic to propose studying the evolutionary history of virtually any organism on a genomic scale. However, when dealing with non-model organisms it is not ...
Marine Sediment Sample Pre-processing for Macroinvertebrates Metabarcoding: Mechanical Enrichment and Homogenization.
(2016)
Metabarcoding is an accurate and cost-effective technique that allows for simultaneous
taxonomic identification of multiple environmental samples. Application of this technique
to marine benthic macroinvertebrate ...
