To track the changes in ocean color, scientists analyzed measurements of ocean color taken by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard the Aqua satellite, which has been ...
Scientists have unveiled a groundbreaking method (CSAC) to harmonize satellite ocean color data across various satellites, which paved the way for the generation of reliable, global-scale, long-term, ...
A new study analyzing 20 years of data has found that our oceans have changed color, indicating a significant shift in marine ecosystems that is likely due to human-caused climate change. For decades, ...
Picture the vast expanse of ocean you've seen in postcards or vacation photos - that brilliant blue stretching endlessly toward the horizon. Yet something profound is happening beneath those familiar ...
A green ocean is a productive ocean; the light from the sun helps the phytoplankton — tiny ocean plants — to be productive. This production in turn drives ocean food webs. New research, published in ...
Over half of the world's oceans have developed a green tinge in the past two decades years, a study shows. Measurements of ocean surface color taken via satellite over the past 20 years have uncovered ...
The oceans of today look different from the oceans of 20 years ago, researchers found in a new study. Around 56% of the world's oceans have changed color, with the blue waters becoming greener over ...
