Synoptic and Seasonal Variability of Small River Plumes in the Northeastern Part of the Black Sea

Evgeniya Korshenko et al.

Summary: Small river plumes are important features in coastal regions of the World Ocean, impacting coastal circulation, water quality, and ocean-atmosphere interaction. This study investigates the factors influencing the variability of small river plumes and their impact on land-ocean fluxes using numerical modeling. The results highlight the importance of river discharge and temporal distribution in determining the influence of river plumes on coastal processes, with local atmospheric circulation also playing a significant role.

Ocean Color Remote Sensing of Suspended Sediments along a Continuum from Rivers to River Plumes: Concentration, Transport, Fluxes and Dynamics

Anouck Ody et al.

Summary: This study investigates the capability of high and medium spatial resolution ocean color satellite data to monitor the transport of suspended particulate matter (SPM) from river to river mouth to river plume. The study improves upon existing algorithms and demonstrates the potential of combined field and satellite observations to monitor the transport and fluxes of SPM discharged by rivers into the coastal ocean.

Long-Term Variability on Suspended Particulate Matter Loads From the Tributaries of the World's Largest Choked Lagoon

Eduardo C. Bortolin et al.

Summary: This study assesses the variability of suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentrations in Patos Lagoon tributaries at seasonal to interdecadal scales. The results show that SPM concentrations vary seasonally and are influenced by El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) at interannual scales. Higher concentrations occur from winter to spring, especially during El Nino periods, while lower concentrations occur from summer to autumn, especially during La Nina periods. These natural phenomena influence the spreading of river plumes, SPM concentrations in the lagoon, and the export to the Atlantic Ocean.

Satellite assessment of coastal plume variability and its relation to environmental variables in the Sofala Bank

Helder Arlindo Machaieie et al.

Summary: This study used MODIS sensor data to analyze the spatial and temporal variability of coastal plume in the Sofala Bank, concluding that wind plays a dominant role in controlling suspended sediments, while the influence of Zambezi River discharge and rainfall is relatively minor. Higher R(rs)555 values in the southern region may be associated with increased tide mixing and shallower bathymetry, highlighting the contribution of Pungue and Buzi River to sediment supply.

Sustainable Development of Coastal Areas: Port Expansion with Small Impacts on Estuarine Hydrodynamics and Sediment Transport Pattern

Pablo Dias da Silva et al.

Summary: With the expansion of global trade and traffic, the need for port infrastructure expansion has become crucial. A sustainable solution is to dispose of large volumes of dredged material on land for coastal expansion. A case study using numerical modeling evaluated the impact of changing an island's configuration on hydrodynamics and suspended sediment deposition. The results showed that the proposed expansion of the Port of Rio Grande is feasible with minimal environmental impact.

Automated detection of atmospheric NO2 plumes from satellite data: a tool to help infer anthropogenic combustion emissions

Douglas P. Finch et al.

Summary: The study employs a CNN to identify NO2 plumes from satellite data with a success rate of over 90%. Most NO2 plumes are found over mainland China, but there is no correlation with the location of natural gas flaring. Using a CO2 emission inventory, it is determined that the NO2 plume distribution captures 92% of total CO2 emissions.
