Accurate chlorophyll a concentration (Chla) retrieval in coastal waters from ocean color remote sensing faces challenges due to the significant optical complexity compared clear oceanic waters. In this paper, novel technique for Chla turbid was proposed and tested Bohai Sea based on global water classification system. Firstly, situ measured spectral reflectance spectra (Rrs(λ)) (n = 559) were classified into different types. Secondly, optimal algorithms identified with newly tuned model...
Automatically detecting macroalgae from optical remote sensing images has been a long-standing problem in ocean monitoring. Existing operational spectral-based techniques tend to assign threshold an indicator such as Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) determine whether or not exists pixel. This thresholding scheme relies on individual pixel features and cannot address the environment variability among different even across one single image. To these limitations, we develop...
Abstract Developing proficiency and intercultural competence are goals promoted by the Modern Language Association widely shared postsecondary second language programs across United States. Although development of has been studied extensively in this context, comparatively little is known about how develops domestically as part a broader educational experience. To chart competence, 296 students studying seven languages completed American Council on Teaching Foreign Languages Oral Proficiency...
Green macroalgae bloom (GMB), with the dominant species of Ulva prolifera, has regularly occurred since 2007 along China coast. Although disaster prevention and control achieved favorable results in 2020, satellite-observed GMB annual maximum coverage (AMC) rebounded sharply 2021 to an unprecedented level. The reasons for this rebound significant interannual variability over past 15 years are still open questions. Here, by using long-term time-series (2007–2022) optical Synthetic Aperture...

A spaceborne limb hyperspectral imager for ozone detection is designed and developed. The can provide the radiances images with wide-band large dynamic range. It composed of an off-axis parabolic telescope prism dispersive aspheric spectrometer, range be realized by using a band-attenuation filter. spectral from 280nm to 1000nm, field view 2.4° (limb vertical direction) × 0.02° (horizontal direction), focal length 69mm. design results meet requirements image quality have characteristics...
Water clarity ( <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">Z<sub>SD</sub></i> ) is a critical water quality parameter that requires remote sensing mapping. Although great progress has been made in retrieval over clear waters during past decades, challenges remain turbid waters. To address this issue, new model was proposed to retrieve oceanic extremely coastal waters, by improving the Firstly, were optically classified into three classes...

<title>Abstract</title> Phytoplankton, the foundation of marine ecosystems, are undergoing unprecedented changes under global warming, particularly in Arctic Ocean. Yet understanding long-term and seasonal evolutions phytoplankton is limited due to lack observations winter half year, including polar nights. Here, utilizing spaceborne lidar observations, we develop a machine learning-based high-accuracy chlorophyll-a (Chla) retrieved algorithm, establish monthly Chla dataset for Ocean filling...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has crucially influenced anthropogenic activities, which in turn impacts upon the environment. In this study, we investigated variations on aerosol optical depth (AOD) at 550 nm over Bohai Sea and Yellow during COVID-19 lockdown (from February to March 2020) of China mainland based Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observation by comparing with historical AOD records (2011-2019). Our results show that implementation, decade-low levels...
The out-of-band (OOB) response is one of the key specifications for satellite optical sensors, which has important influences on quantitative remote sensing retrieval. In this paper, effect OOB radiometric measurements made just above sea surface evaluated three broad visible bands (i.e., blue, green, and red) Coastal Zone Imager (CZI) onboard China's ocean HY-1C to be launched in September 2018. For turbid coastal (Case 2) waters whose properties are mainly dominated by suspended sediment...

In applied linguistics, there has been a growing body of L2 pragmatics studies that investigate the intricate relationship between language learners’ subjective pragmatic choices and various contextual factors. The current study contributes to understanding learner agency by illustrating complex processes through which learners enact their in response varying factors when making sociopragmatic interpretations strategies. To capture ecological nature agency, this conceptualizes as...
