TL;DR: In this article, the authors used daily satellite observations of airborne dusts to obtain an 11-year regional-scale analysis of dust transport out of Africa and found that the substantial seasonal variability over the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea can be explained by the synoptic meteorology.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed estimates of atmospheric inputs to the Mediterranean and some coastal areas, and uncertainities in these estimates considered, and indicated that eolian deposition is an important (50%) or even dominant (>80%) contribution to sediments in the offshore waters of the entire Mediterranean basin.

TL;DR: A daily analysis of African dust concentrations in the Mediterranean atmosphere has been made between June 1983 and December 1994 using the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP-B2) archive of VIS channel images.

TL;DR: In this article, a large set of quantitative inventories of phytoplankton pigments collected during nine cruises from Le Havre (France) to New Orleans (US) was used to distinguish between different species.

TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm called PHYSAT was developed to detect the major dominant phytoplankton groups from anomalies of the marine signal measured by ocean color satellites, which allows to identify nanoeucaryotes, Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus and diatoms.
