Recently, compared with acoustic and radio methods, underwater optical wireless
communications has been considered as a high-speed and high-bandwidth transmitting …

Submesoscale circulations influence momentum, buoyancy and transport of biological
tracers and pollutants within the upper turbulent layer. How much and how far into the water …

The Gulf of Mexico is a very productive and economically important system where riverine
runoff acts as a linkage between the continental shelf and the open ocean, providing …

The highly productive upwelling zone in the Southeast Pacific provides inputs of C and N to
the oceanic deep-water system via lateral transport, although the quality of this organic …

Abstract Changes in phytoplankton composition and abundance are controlled by multiple
factors, including physical forcing and nutrient stoichiometry. This study seeks to assess the …

The filaments of the African Eastern Boundary Upwelling System (EBUS) are responsible for
feeding nutrients to the oligotrophic waters of the northeastern Atlantic. However, turbulent …

This paper proposes an ocean front database and a method for its construction tailored for
studying the dynamic evolution of ocean fronts. Ocean fronts play a crucial role in the …

The distribution and variability of phytoplankton in the upper layers of the ocean are highly
correlated with physical processes at different time and spatial scales. Model simulations …

With the general objective of evaluating the spatiotemporal distribution of plankton under
different environmental conditions, governed by physical processes, on the inner shelf off …

This thesis presents novel results on phytoplankton spatiotemporal distribution and
variability at submesoscale range, and on the potential effects of climate change over …
