TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an empirical algorithm to retrieve surface ocean colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from NASA's MODIS-Aqua and SeaWiFS satellite sensors and investigate the processes that influence the distributions of CDOM and DOC.

TL;DR: This study quantifies signal dynamic range and sensitivity parameters under uniform conditions for widely used past and current sensors in order to provide a reference for the design of future ocean color radiometers and to help design future missions such as the Geostationary Coastal and Air Pollution Events (GEO-CAPE) mission and the Pre-Aerosol-Clouds-Ecosystems (PACE) mission.

TL;DR: The Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, Ocean Ecosystem (PACE) mission represents the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) next investment in satellite ocean color and the study of...

TL;DR: In this article, a sampling experiment was performed to measure infauna association with sediment composition and salinity gradients in Nueces Bay, Texas, USA, where the bay was partitioned into four salinity zones and three sediment types.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors constructed a regional carbon budget for Eastern North America using historical data, empirical models, remote-sensing algorithms, and process-based models, showing that coastal carbon budgets should explicitly include tidal wetlands, estuaries, shelf waters and the linkages between them; ignoring any of them may produce a biased picture of coastal carbon cycling.
