Sea surface temperature (SST) can be measured from space using infrared sensors on Earth-observing satellites. However, the tradeoff between spatial resolution and swath size (and hence revisit time) means that SST products derived remote sensing measurements commonly only have a moderate (>1 km). In this article, we adapt design of super-resolution neural network architecture [specifically very deep (VDSR)] to enhance both top-of-atmosphere thermal images sea regions bottom-of-atmosphere by...

The genus Pinna includes two species in the Mediterranean Sea: nobilis and rudis. Both these are under threat from multiple stressors. nobilis, particular, has been exhibiting mass mortality events (MMEs) since 2016. population distribution of have never comprehensively explored Maltese archipelago, this work, we collate information collected between 2006 2019 through a number SCUBA underwater visual census monitoring programs. logistical barriers surrounding SCUBA-based sampling techniques...
The CALYPSO HF radar network is a permanent and fully operational observing system currently composed of four CODAR stations. providing real- time hourly maps sea surface currents wave data in the Malta-Sicily Channel since 2012. Significant height derived from measurements are confirmed to be reliable source information even case extreme events. However, it noticed that subject differing interfering noise signal unknown sources may competing with transmissions same frequency band. These...
