TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the spatial distribution of heavy metal contamination and its ecological risk assessment in surface sediments from the Korean coast using ICP-MS and found that heavy metals were highly contaminated with Cu, Zn, Cd and Hg.
Abstract: Ra, K., Kim, E.-S., Kim, K.-T., Kim, J.-K., Lee, J.-M., and Choi, J.-Y., 2013. Assessment of heavy metal contamination and its ecological risk in the surface sediments along the coast of Korea. We studied the spatial distribution of heavy metal contamination and its ecological risk assessment in sediments from the Korean coast. Surface sediments collected from 12 coastal zones of Korea (total 200 sediment samples) along the west, south and east coast of Korea have been analyzed for heavy metals including Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Pb and Hg using ICP-MS. Mean concentrations were 58.3 mg/kg for Cr, 10.2 mg/kg for Co, 24.3 mg/kg for Ni, 36.5 mg/kg for Cu, 122 mg/kg for Zn, 9.1 mg/kg for As, 0.25 mg/kg for Cd, 35.0 mg/kg for Pb and 0.046 mg/kg for Hg, respectively. Sediments sampled from heavily industrialized areas such as Shihwa, Masan, Gwangyang and Ulsan were highly contaminated with Cu, Zn, Cd and Hg. Significantly positive correlation among metals were observed (p<0.01). This suggests that so...

TL;DR: Results indicate that SBA can measure water-leaving radiance in high precision, and there is no limitation of water types for the deployment of SBA, and the requirement of post-measurement processing is minimum; thus high-quality L(w) for a wide range of aquatic environments can be acquired.
Abstract: It has been a long-standing goal to precisely measure water-leaving radiance (Lw, or its equivalent property, remote-sensing reflectance) in the field, but reaching this goal is quite a challenge. This is because conventional approaches do not provide a direct measurement of Lw, but rather measure various related components and subsequently derive this core property from these components. Due to many uncontrollable factors in the measurement procedure and imprecise post-measurement processing routines, the resulting Lw is inherently associated with various levels of uncertainties. Here we present a methodology called the skylight-blocked approach (SBA) to measure Lw directly in the field, along with results obtained recently in the Laurentian Great Lakes. These results indicate that SBA can measure Lw in high precision. In particular, there is no limitation of water types for the deployment of SBA, and the requirement of post-measurement processing is minimum; thus high-quality Lw for a wide range of aquatic environments can be acquired.

TL;DR: OceanGliders as mentioned in this paper is an active coordination and enhancement of global glider activity, which brings together marine scientists and engineers operating gliders around the world to observe the long-term physical, biogeochemical and biological ocean processes and phenomena that are relevant for societal applications.
Abstract: The OceanGliders program started in 2016 to support active coordination and enhancement of global glider activity. OceanGliders contributes to the international efforts of the Global Ocean Observation System (GOOS) for Climate, Ocean Health and Operational Services. It brings together marine scientists and engineers operating gliders around the world: (1) to observe the long-term physical, biogeochemical, and biological ocean processes and phenomena that are relevant for societal applications; and, (2) to contribute to the GOOS through real-time and delayed mode data dissemination. The OceanGliders program is distributed across national and regional observing systems and significantly contributes to integrated, multi-scale and multi-platform sampling strategies. OceanGliders shares best practices, requirements, and scientific knowledge needed for glider operations, data collection and analysis. It also monitors global glider activity and supports the dissemination of glider data through regional and global databases, in real-time and delayed modes, facilitating data access to the wider community. OceanGliders currently supports national, regional and global initiatives to maintian and expand the capabilities and application of gliders to meet key global challenges such as improved measurement of ocean boundary currents, water transformation and storm forecast.
