Ocean Colour Remote Sensing in Polar Seas.
(International Ocean Colour Coordinating Group (IOCCG), Dartmouth, NS, Canada, 2015)
Accelerating climate change calls for a vastly improved understanding of the polar ecosystems based on an intensive observation program. In situ observations from ships are, however, inherently sparse in space and time, ...
Best Practices in Crafting the Calibrated, Enhanced-Resolution Passive-Microwave EASE-Grid 2.0 Brightness Temperature Earth System Data Record.
(2018)
Since the late 1970s, satellite passive-microwave brightness temperatures have been
a mainstay in remote sensing of the cryosphere. Polar snow and ice-covered ocean and land
surfaces are especially sensitive to climate ...
Nutrient Analysis in Arctic Waters Using a Portable Sensing Platform.
(2021)
A portable sensing platform for the detection of nutrients (PO4
3−, NO2
−, NO3
−) in natural
waters has been realized through the use of rapid prototyping techniques, colorimetric
chemistries, electronics, and LED-based ...
INTERACT Management planning for Arctic and northern alpine research stations – Examples of good practices.
(Aarhus University, DCE – Danish Centre for Enviroment and Energy, Aarhus, Denmark, 2014)
This book is about management of arctic and northern alpine research stations. It has been
produced by a group of station managers participating in the EU 7th Framework Programme
Infrastructure project called INTERACT. ...
The Best of Both Worlds: Connecting Remote Sensing and Arctic Communities for Safe Sea Ice Travel.
(2020)
Northern communities are increasingly interested in technology that provides information about the sea ice environment for travel purposes. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) remote sensing is widely used to observe sea ice ...
Expanding the scientific basis for how the world can monitor and manage natural resources.
(University of Copenhagen, and NORDECO (Nordic Foundation for Development and Ecology), Copenhagen, Denmark, 2016)
This D.Sc. thesis presents research into the theory, practice, application and results of ‘citizen science’ as applied in the developing world (Africa, South East Asia, Latin America) and in the Arctic (Greenland). It ...
INTAROS Community-Based Monitoring Capacity Development Process in Yakutia and Komi Republic, Arctic Russia.
(CSIPN, RIPOSR, NORDECO and INTAROS, 2019)
INTAROS (Integrated Arctic Observing System) is an effort funded by the European Union to
extend and improve existing and evolving observing systems that encompass the land, air and sea in
the Arctic. INTAROS has been ...
Polar Region Bathymetry: Critical Knowledge for the Prediction of Global Sea Level Rise.
(2022)
The ocean and the marine parts of the cryosphere interact directly with, and are
affected by, the seafloor and its primary properties of depth (bathymetry) and shape
(morphology) in many ways. Bottom currents are largely ...
Guidelines for monitoring Seal abundance and distribution in the HELCOM area.
(HELCOM, Helsinki, Finland, 2018)
HELCOM Recommendation 27-28/2 tasks the HELCOM SEAL Expert Group to develop and coordinate monitoring programmes to, among other things, assess the abundance and distribution, and the trends ofthese parameters of the Baltic ...
Guidelines for coastal fish monitoring.
(HELCOM, Helsinki, Finland, 2019)
Coastal fish communities are influenced by a plethora of impacting variables, including human-induced pressures related to overexploitation, climate change, eutrophication, contaminants, habitat degradation, effects of ...
