Machine learning provides a clearer window into ocean motion

Oceanographers use satellites to peer down at Earth and measure the elevation of the ocean's surface. This information can help them map the circulation of the ocean's currents and understand the role this movement plays ...

Meta-learning helps to estimate oceanic barrier layer structure

The oceanic barrier layer is situated between the base of the ocean's density mixed layer and the top of the isothermal layer, with its thickness fluctuations directly influencing the ocean's vertical mixing process. Changes ...

Listening in on endangered Amazon River dolphins

Monitoring echolocation clicks could be used to track the movements of two endangered freshwater dolphin species that inhabit inaccessible parts of the Amazon Basin—the boto (or pink river dolphin) and the tucuxi—and ...
