Introduction
Phytoplankton in the World Ocean is responsible for roughly half of the atmospheric carbon dioxide uptake. Depending on the type of organisms, they can either counter-balance or enhance a climate in change. Studying phytoplankton ecology and phenology is, therefore, of the utmost importance for the understanding of future climate variations. My research focuses on regions where changes are occurring faster, mostly related to earlier ice-melt and other geophysical seasonal variations.

Monitoring temporal changes in phytoplankton dynamics in high latitude lakes is particularly timely for understanding the impacts of warming on aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we analyzed 33-years of high resolution (30 m) Landsat (LT) data for reconstructing seasonal patterns of chlorophyll a (chl a) concentration in four lakes across Finland,...

Monitoring lakes in high-latitude areas can provide a better understanding of freshwater systems sensitivity and accrete knowledge on climate change impacts. Phytoplankton are sensitive to various conditions: warmer temperatures, earlier ice-melt and changing nutrient sources. While satellite imagery can monitor phytoplankton biomass using chloroph...
Article
Despite the progress in sustainable development strategies, the role of the Amazon rainforest as a carbon sink faces increasing disturbances that may have a critical impact on global climate. Understanding the vulnerability of the Amazon rainforest to climate change is a major challenge, considering the complex interaction between human and natural...

Tsunamis occur quite frequently following large magnitude earthquakes along the Chilean coast. Most of these earthquakes occur along the Peru–Chile Trench, one of the most seismically active subduction zones of the world. This study aims to understand better the characteristics of the tsunamis triggered along the Peru–Chile Trench. We investigate t...

Numerous policies have been proposed by international and supranational institutions, such as the European Union, to surveil Earth from space and furnish indicators of environmental conditions across diverse scenarios. In tandem with these policies, different initiatives, particularly on both sides of the Atlantic, have emerged to provide valuable...

The M ∼ 8.3–8.4 25 November 1941 was one of the largest submarine strike-slip earthquakes ever recorded in the Northeast (NE) Atlantic basin. This event occurred along the Eurasia–Nubia plate boundary between the Azores and the Strait of Gibraltar. After the earthquake, the tide stations in the NE Atlantic recorded a small tsunami with maximum ampl...

The M~8.3–8.4 25th November 1941 was one of the largest submarine strike-slip earthquakes ever recorded in the North East (NE) Atlantic basin. This event occurred along the Eurasia-Nubia plate boundary between the Azores and the Strait of Gibraltar. After the earthquake, the tide stations in the NE Atlantic recorded a small tsunami with maximum amp...

ABSTRACT In this study we analyze the tsunami recorded in the North Atlantic following the 25 November 1941 earthquake. The earthquake with a magnitude of 8.3, located on the Gloria Fault, was one of the largest strike slip events recorded. The Gloria fault is a 500 km long scarp in the North Atlantic Ocean between 19W and 24W known to be a segment...

Many fundamental aspects of the Uranian system remain unknown or poorly constrained as no in-depth study of this system has been carried out thus far. Our knowledge of Uranus relies mainly on the Voyager 2 flybys in 1986, as well as remote sensing from Earth orbit by the Hubble Space Telescope. Studying the Uranian system would allow a better under...

Question
I have been exploring data in the Agean sea from MODIS product normalized fluorescence line-height (nFLH).
In many control areas, I have noticed a strange pattern on the fluorescence line-height values. Does anyone know if this is due to a problem in the sensor?
Question
I would like to produce the sort of plot with latitude-wise averages for a raster in ArcMap as in Petr Lukes et al 2016.
How can I do this?
Thanks a bunch,
Filipe
