Chlorophyll Eddies

Instruments aboard NASA’s PACE mission are able to distinguish far more about phytoplankton blooms than previous satellites. This image shows chlorophyll concentrations in the Norwegian Sea in July 2025. Chlorophyll acts as a proxy for phytoplankton, which produce the chemical as they process sunlight into food and oxygen.

Despite their microscopic size, phytoplankton have enormous collective effects. Scientists estimate that phytoplankton produce as much as half of the Earth’s oxygen in addition to helping transport carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into the deep ocean. They are also the foundation of the marine food web, feeding nearly all life in the ocean. (Image credit: W. Liang; via NASA Earth Observatory)

Baltic Bloom

June and July brings blooming phytoplankton to the Baltic Sea, seen here in late July 2025. On-the-water measurements show that much of this bloom was cyanobacteria, an ancient type of organism among the first to process carbon dioxide into oxygen. These organisms thrive in nutrient- and nitrogen-rich waters. Here, they mark out the tides and currents that mix the Baltic. Zoom in on the full image, and you’ll see dark, nearly-straight lines across the swirls; these are the wakes of boats. (Image credit: M. Garrison; via NASA Earth Observatory)

This was a pretty decent portion of #fishnchips offered by #Eddies in #Tammisaari / #Ekenäs.

As you can see, all the proper condiments!

Small #ocean swirls may have an outsized affect on #climate, #NASA #satellite shows
Surface Water and Ocean Topography (#SWOT) satellite lets scientists observe small-scale #eddies and waves for the first time. Its Ka-band Radar Interferometer scans 120-km-wide swaths of sea surface height, delivering two-dimensional measurements with far greater resolution and lower noise than earlier altimeters. The satellite's 21-day orbit enables repeated global coverage.

🎆 Happy New Year 2025! ✨

This year #AI4PEX goal is to improve the representation of three important processes in climate models:

(i) the response of tropical and subtropical low clouds to #warming;
(ii) the vegetation response to increased CO2;
(iii) role of mesoscale processes (#eddies) in the ocean.

I've been looking into why Waihau Bay near the East Cape of New Zealand is such a good location for recreational Southern Bluefin Tuna fishing. After working in California for 11 years, the sparsity of oceanographic information about the region is startling for me.
