An evaluation of the performance of Sea-Bird Scientific’s SeaFET™ autonomous pH sensor: considerations for the broader oceanographic community.
(2018)
The commercially available Sea-Bird SeaFET™
provides an accessible way for a broad community of researchers to study ocean acidification and obtain robust measurements of seawater pH via the use of an in situ autonomous ...
Emerging Methodologies Applied to Automated Data Quality Control.
(2018)
Oceanographers have faced three specific challenges for the past half-century: limited electrical power, challenging data telemetry, and biofouling. Amazing advances are being made in all three areas, and substantial ...
The KPP Boundary Layer Scheme for the Ocean: revisiting its formulation and benchmarking one-dimensional simulations relative to LES.
(2018)
We evaluate the Community ocean Vertical Mixing project version of the K-profile
parameterization (KPP) for modeling upper ocean turbulent mixing. For this purpose, one-dimensional
KPP simulations are compared across a ...
A generic framework for individual-based modelling and physical-biological interaction.
(2018)
The increased availability of high-resolution ocean data globally has enabled more detailed
analyses of physical-biological interactions and their consequences to the ecosystem. We
present IBMlib, which is a versatile, ...
Guidelines for Measuring Changes in Seawater pH and Associated Carbonate Chemistry in Coastal Environments of the Eastern United States.
(U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Narragansett, RI, 2018)
These guidelines are written for a variety of audiences ranging from shellfish growers
interested in monitoring pH with inexpensive equipment to citizen monitoring groups to
advanced chemistry laboratories interested in ...
High-sensitivity salinity sensor based on optical microfiber coil resonator.
(2018)
A simple, compact, and high-sensitivity optical sensor for salinity measurement is reported based on an optical microfiber coil resonator (MCR). The MCR is manufactured by initially wrapping microfiber on a polymethylmethacrylate ...
Design and Performance Test of an Ocean Turbulent Kinetic Energy Dissipation Rate Measurement Probe.
(2018)
Ocean turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate is an essential parameter in marine environmental monitoring. Numerous probes have been designed to measure the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate in the past, and ...
Assimilation of coastal and open sea biogeochemical data to improve phytoplankton simulation in the Mediterranean Sea.
(2018)
The high spatial and temporal variability of biogeochemical features, induced by local dynamics and terrestrial and atmospheric inputs in shelf seas, are challenging issues for the implementation of data assimilation in ...
Alliance for Coastal Technologies Workshop Proceedings: National Coastal Ecosystem Moorings Workshop. University of Washington 20-21 March 2018..
(Alliance for Coastal Technologies(ACT) and NOAA/US Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS), Solomons, MD, 2018)
The Alliance for Coastal Technologies (ACT, www.act-us.info) convened the "National Coastal Ecosystem Moorings Workshop" in Seattle, Washington at the University of Washington on 20 and 21 March 2018. The primary objectives ...
Ocean acidification studies and the uncertainties relevance on measurements of marine carbonate system properties.
(2018)
The global ocean has a key role on the Earth's climate system. It possesses a direct connection with the atmospheric gases, including the greenhouses, allowing exchanges between those compartments and oceanic storage of ...
