Study reveals new intricate behaviours of deep-sea currents - National Oceanography Centre: - A new study led by scientists at the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) has revealed the complex movements of currents on the seafloor for the first time. - Rare datasets show that deep-sea currents change intensity seasonally and can even change direction within hours. - Sustained observations of bottom currents are vital to understand the pathways of natural and human-made particles and potential impacts on the seafloor communities exposed to them. - Scientists can also use this information to reconstruct past climates providing a wealth of information extending far beyond historical records. https://lnkd.in/e3zj2kNp

?? New Research Publication Alert! ?? Excited to share our latest research in the field of underwater acoustics!?Our team has delved deep into the propagation of sound in water, focusing on the mathematical intricacies of the parabolic equation channel model. This range-dependent model proves particularly effective for low-frequency propagation in shallow waters. Key challenges we've addressed: ?? Uncertainties in littoral waters due to boundary interactions and multiple scattering events. ?? Limited data and measurements in the Indian Ocean Region, hindering accurate modeling and validation. ?? Variations in acoustic parameters caused by daily and seasonal changes, as well as the presence of marine life. Our research aims to enhance understanding and provide robust solutions for these challenges. Dive into the details and explore our findings through the summary and research note linked below!

Studying the sounds of the Ocean with Dr Gaye Bayrakci - National Oceanography Centre: With its depths teeming with diverse life and dynamic natural events, the Ocean is anything but silent. Advanced technology now gives scientists insight into the noise created by everything from underwater landslides, icebergs, ships and hydrothermal vents to whales, rain, marine engineering, and more. https://lnkd.in/ezYQd3yK

To support our goal of achieving Net Zero by 2040, we have commissioned the UK’s environmental science centres to review the Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) landscape. UAS technologies enable research that is currently beyond the reach of traditional aircraft – playing a crucial role in supporting cutting-edge science, while helping to reduce carbon emissions. The 'Net Zero Aerial Capability (NZArC) Scoping Report: A Review of the Role of Uncrewed Aerial Systems in the Decarbonisation Strategy of NERC Aerial Activities' includes recommendations on how best to invest in and support environmental science research using these technologies. These recommendations were developed collaboratively with the research community through workshops and analysis of case studies provided by them. Thank you to experts from the following NERC Centres and collaborating institutes for co-authoring this report: ? British Antarctic Survey (BAS),?? ? British Geological Survey (BGS),?? ? National Oceanography Centre (NOC),?? ? National Centre for Earth Observations (NCEO),?? ? National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS),?? ? UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (UKCEH), ? ? Scottish Association For Marine Science (SAMS), and?? ? Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML).?? Read the report here: https://orlo.uk/HfmRh

Congratulations to IPE-affiliated faculty member Dr. Ben Kravitz, Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, on his appointment to the International Commission on Climate (ICCL)! Membership in the ICCL is limited to fewer than 20 current scientists; Dr. Kravitz will be the sole American member on the expert commission. The commission is part of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics' International Association of Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences. Kravitz’s main area of research is climate engineering, which involves major interventions to counter climate change. “We’re not doing enough quickly enough to prevent some of the awful effects of climate change that we’re experiencing right now,” Kravitz said. “There are things we could do temporarily in the meantime, while we get our act together, and these fall under the umbrella of climate engineering." At IU, Kravitz’s research group uses climate models to better understand how the Earth has changed in the past, and how it might change going forward. Such research can empower policymakers and the public to make better decisions about their futures in a warming world. "(W)e really need to understand how climate engineering work to know whether it could and should be part of a portfolio of responses—we only have one planet, after all. Therefore, a lot of the work that I do involves plugging climate engineering into climate models to see what might happen.” Kravitz’s lab specializes in combining global climate, regional climate, and process model simulations on such questions as: ?? How does the Earth system respond to climate engineering? ? What are the risks and side effects? ???? How can scientists combine models across scales to quantify how climate change will affect people's daily lives? #geoengineering #ClimateEngineering #ClimateChange #EarthAndAtmosphericSciences

CORAL RESEARCH NEWS: Scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography study coral reef bleaching Marine biologists at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla are conducting a long-term study of coral reef “bleaching” off the Hawaiian coast in efforts to combat global warming by conserving and restoring precious reef ecosystems. Using 3D imaging technology, scuba-diving scientists like Scripps’ Orion McCarthy (above), a recent graduate conducting research as a Ph.D. student, have been surveying Maui’s corals annually since 2014, contributing to a unique, long-term dataset that reveals coral survival rates following bleaching events in 2015 and 2019. It’s invaluable information to know. “It’s complicated telling the story about the dramatic global decline with coral tied to climate change reminding us they are a natural system that goes through ups and downs and that it isn’t a foregone conclusion (that bleached reefs will die), but that there is a middle ground (where they can survive),” McCarthy pointed out. He added one aim of studying bleaching is to devise ways to “locally improve water quality and reduce the impact on coral reefs and their survival during climate change.” Read full story here: https://lnkd.in/eWMMP7Wi #coralreefs #coralresearch #coralbleaching #climatechange #coralecology #coralreefecology #marineecology #marinescience #marinebiology
