Anew fraternal twin ocean observing system simulation experiment (OSSE) system is validated in a Gulf of Mexico domain. It is the first ocean system that takes full advantage of design criteria and rigorous evaluation procedures ...

Digital catalogs of ocean data have been available for decades, but advances in standardized services and software for catalog searches and data access now make it possible to create catalog-driven workflows that ...

A full tutorial with sample data is included with this zip file within the 'tutorial' directory. This self-paced training module introduces the benthic terrain modeling concepts used in the BTM, and steps users through ...

The role ships play in atmospheric, oceanic, and biogeochemical observations is described with a focus on measurements made near the ocean surface. Ships include merchant and research vessels; cruise liners and ferries; ...

Assigning uncertainty to ocean-color satellite products is a requirement to allowinformed use of these data. Here, uncertainty estimates are derived using the comparison on a 12th-degree grid of coincident daily records ...

The “Colombian Oceanographic Data and Information Coordination Committee” (CTN Diocean, by its initials in Spanish) was created by Resolution No. 005/2015 of the Colombian Ocean Commission (CCO, by its initials in Spanish), ...

The software routines for data sampling and processing that are implemented on-board telemetry devices (tags) called Conductivity-Temperature-Depth Satellite Relay Data Loggers (CTD-SRDLs) enable the simultaneous collection ...

Ocean observations are expensive and difficult to collect. Designing effective ocean observing systems therefore warrants deliberate, quantitative strategies. We leverage adjoint modeling and Hessian uncertainty ...

For open ocean environments, it is rare to find continuous, simultaneous air and sea observation records due to the challenges of instrument installation and maintenance. The Ieodo Ocean Research Station (Ieodo ORS), a ...

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) guides users through the quality control (QC) and processing steps that are necessary when using archived U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ...
