Decadal Measurements of the First Geostationary Ocean Color Satellite (GOCI) Compared with MODIS and VIIRS Data

Myung-Sook Park et al.

Summary: This study performs a multi-year quality assessment of the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) data and finds good consistency with MODIS and VIIRS, with some notable deviations. It also identifies sensor degradation in the later stages of the mission and suggests caution in the long-term application of GOCI data. The planned adjustments to the GOCI-II satellite are expected to eliminate the biases.

Satellite-Observed Chlorophyll-a Concentration Variability in the East Sea (Japan Sea): Seasonal Cycle, Long-Term Trend, and Response to Climate Index

Kyung-Ae Park et al.

Summary: This study examines the spatiotemporal variability of satellite-observed chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentrations in the East Sea (Japan Sea) and finds a significant interannual variability with an increasing trend over the past two decades. The study also reveals the impact of physical environment factors such as sea surface temperature and wind speeds on the long-term trend of Chl-a concentrations. Additionally, the Arctic Oscillation index and the Multi-variate ENSO Index are found to be closely related to Chl-a concentrations in the East Sea.

Remote Sensing of the Seasonal and Interannual Variability of Surface Chlorophyll-a Concentration in the Northwest Pacific over the Past 23 Years (1997-2020)

Shuangling Chen et al.

Summary: Phytoplankton in the northwest Pacific plays a crucial role in absorbing atmospheric CO2 and driving the ocean carbon cycle. This study investigated the long-term interannual variations of phytoplankton biomass in this region using satellite data from 1997 to 2020. The results showed significant spatial and temporal dynamics of phytoplankton biomass with decreasing patterns poleward. Seasonal blooms were dominant, with spring and fall blooms in subpolar waters and only a spring bloom in subtropical seas. Interannually, an increasing trend of phytoplankton biomass was observed in subpolar oceans, while a slight but significant negative trend was found in the subtropical gyre. The negative trend in subtropical waters was driven by surface warming and limited nutrient supply, while in subpolar waters, there were potential external nutrient supplies. No significant connections were found between phytoplankton biomass variations and climate indices in the study area.

Characteristics of Eulerian mesoscale eddies in the Gulf of Mexico

Yingli Zhu et al.

Summary: In this study, a comprehensive analysis of Eulerian mesoscale eddies in the Gulf of Mexico was conducted, revealing their characteristics and seasonal variations. The study found that eastern eddies are closely related to the Loop Current, while the formation of non-Loop Current eddies is linked to the position and strength of the background current. However, there is uncertainty in the seasonal variability of the eddies.

Characteristics of Mesoscale Eddies in the Vicinity of the Kuroshio: Statistics from Satellite Altimeter Observations and OFES Model Data

Yiyun Shi et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the statistics of eddy properties around the Kuroshio in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, revealing that the radius, amplitude, and kinetic energy of eddies decrease sharply when approaching the Kuroshio region. The three-dimensional structure of the eddies is also influenced by interactions with the main Kuroshio current.

Anticyclonic eddies aggregate pelagic predators in a subtropical gyre

Martin C. Arostegui et al.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of ocean eddies on the behavior of pelagic predator communities in subtropical gyres. The results show that pelagic predator catch is consistently higher inside anticyclonic eddies compared to cyclones and non-eddy areas. The increased abundance of mesopelagic prey in anticyclone cores is attracting diverse predators and forming ecological hotspots.

Submesoscale Mixing Across the Mixed Layer in the Gulf of Mexico

Guangpeng Liu et al.

Summary: Submesoscale circulations play a significant role in the vertical transport of neutrally buoyant particles in the northern Gulf of Mexico. The influence of submesoscale dynamics is greater in winter compared to other seasons, with upwelling into the mixed layer being a major contributor to vertical fluxes in the large mesoscale eddies. The distribution of diffusivities varies in different regions of the Gulf, with higher values in the eastern portion where submesoscale circulations are more intense.

Quantifying the Variability of Phytoplankton Blooms in the NW Mediterranean Sea with the Robust Satellite Techniques (RST)

Emanuele Ciancia et al.

Summary: The study aims to evaluate phytoplankton phenology variability and anomalous blooms in the north-western Mediterranean Sea using robust satellite techniques. The OC-CCI derived chlorophyll-a anomaly index showed the best performance in characterizing anomalous blooms compared to in situ data. Intense convection events may lead to positive chlorophyll-a anomalies between the BOUSSOLE site and the Center of Convection Zone.
