📢PAPER ALERT! New Capability in Autonomous Ocean Carbon Observations Using the Autosub Long-Range AUV Equipped with Novel pH and Total Alkalinity Sensors
🌊 @biogeosensing.bsky.social sensors integrated in NOC ALR during OCEANIDS cruise

Depth (0 to 300 m) by time (2022 to 2026) plots of temperature, salinity, particulate organic carbon (POC), chlorophyll (CHL_A), oxygen, nitrate, pH at in situ temp/pressure, and computed dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) for float 5906497 (adopted name Hedy Lamarr).
🌊BGC-Argo float of the month is 5906497 with 4 years under Antarctic sea ice, just popped out. It was adopted by the American School in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and named “Hedy Lamarr” – the actress who co-invented and patented frequency hopping communications. Named for her science contribution. 1/2

Google Scholar now offers a new feature, Scholar Labs, that uses AI to help you search for papers by asking complex research questions. The search will provide you with a list of papers and, for each one, a brief explanation of how it addresses your query. 🌊🧪 scholar.google.com/scholar_labs...
The 3 graphs show temperature, salinity, and oxygen from the surface to 300 m versus year from 2018 through 2025 for profiling float 5905383. The map shows the trajectory of the float from deployment in the Weddell Gyre (green square) and a loop around the Weddell sea to the present position at the red square.
What's interesting as the Thanksgiving Holiday arrives? The first @bgc-argo.bsky.social profiling floats begin to emerge from under Antarctic sea ice each year. Float 5905383 is the first @soccomproject.bsky.social float for 2025/26. It has spent 7.9 years operating under ice.

Schematics of the upwelling circulation in submarine canyons
Submarine canyons are incisions of the continental slope that favor exchange of coastal and abyssal waters. Brun et al., present new work from the Cassidaigne canyon showing its key role for vertical exchange in the Mediterranean 🌊

A surface drifter floating in the blue sea. The drifter is a wood and fabric construction, mostly white, with 4 yellow buoys and an emerged case with a white box and a red light on top.
ok, this is maybe a long shot, but anyone here using GPS tags (the ones you can put in luggage etc) for self-built surface drifters? 🌊 So far we've used raspberry-pi with a GPS module, but we have lots of connection problems, so we're looking to simplify this....
Depth-time sections from Seaglider data
Episodic events, such as swirling water from eddies, fronts, and strong winds, can transport large amounts of organic carbon into deeper waters on short timescales. Kheireddine et al., deploy gliders to study these events in the Red Sea 🌊
