Adapting to life: ocean biogeochemical modelling and adaptive remeshing Ocean Science DOI 10.5194/os-10-323-2014 9 May 2014 We present a novel method of simulating ocean biogeochemical behaviour on a vertically adaptive computational mesh, where the mesh changes in response to the biogeochemical and physical state of the system throughout the simulation.

Observed decline of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation 2004–2012 Ocean Science DOI 10.5194/os-10-29-2014 6 February 2014 The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation and its component parts are monitored by combining a transatlantic array of moored instruments with submarine-cable-based measurements of the Gulf Stream and satellite derived Ekman transport. The time series has recently been extended to October 2012 and the results show a downward trend since 2004. Read more
MERIS-based ocean colour classification with the discrete Forel–Ule scale Ocean Science DOI 10.5194/os-9-477-2013 2 May 2013 In this paper we present a new algorithm that has the merit of using the full spectral information in the visible domain to characterize natural waters in a simple and globally valid way. This Forel–Ule MERIS (FUME) algorithm converts the normalized multiband reflectance information into a discrete set of numbers using uniform colourimetric functions.
