Why is ocean salinity not a good chronometer?
Historical AspectsOcean salinity is also influenced by tectonic processes, such as the formation and subduction of oceanic crust, the opening and closing of ocean basins, and the weathering of continental landmasses. These processes can affect the input and removal of dissolved minerals from the oceans, leading to long-term changes in ocean salinity that are not necessarily
Estimating River Flow Velocity Using Satellite Imagery
Water BodiesIntroduction to river velocity estimation using satellite imagery Accurate estimation of river flow velocity is critical for a variety of applications, including hydropower management, flood forecasting and water resource planning. Traditional methods of measuring river flow, such as using in-situ flow meters or gauging stations, can be labour intensive, costly and limited in their spatial
