🌊 Last week @justino.info from ICATMAR took part in the Marine Heat Waves from Space: from detection to prediction workshop at the @esa.int Science Hub.

An inspiring exchange on improving the monitoring and prediction of #MarineHeatWaves to better understand and protect ocean health.

I just published an exercise in which you will calculate the Sun's rotation period based on your measurements. It is an excellent introduction to solar observation for students, and a fun activity for you and your children during the summer

🧪🌊 After a few days of lower atmospheric temperatures, sea surface temperatures appear to be approaching seasonal norms. Temperature normalization seems to be evolving from north to south. Hopefully, it will continue this way for a while.

SST anomaly in the Catalan Sea breaks records. A compact mass of water with a surface temperature higher than 29ºC occupies the central part of the Balearic Sea. At the regional level, the water reached, at the beginning of the month, a higher temperature than that of the warmest peak of 2024.🧪🌊
🌊🌡️ L'anomalia tèrmica al mar Català bat rècords històrics. Una massa compacta d’aigua amb una Tº superficial superior als 29ºC ocupa la part central del mar Balear. A nivell regional, l’aigua ha assolit, a principis de mes, una Tº més elevada que la del pic més càlid del 2024.

Seit Wochen ist das Mittelmeer außergewöhnlich warm. Die Rekordtemperaturen alarmieren Wissenschaftler, denn sie wissen: Die marine Hitzewelle kann europaweit für Extremwetter sorgen – sogar noch im Herbst.

Omega Nebula M17 at 5000-6000 light-years from us. It is 15 light-years in diameter approx. Its local geometry is similar to that of the Orion Nebula, except that it is viewed edge-on rather than face-on (Wikipedia)

🌊 #OneArgo is revolutionizing ocean health monitoring!

With 20x more oxygen profiles yearly than ships, it reveals critical changes in ocean oxygen, which has dropped ~2% since mid-20th century, with dead zones quadrupling.

We need this data to protect our oceans!

Not exactly true. This has been computed using a fixed baseline. It has been demonstrated that the use of a fixed baseline overestimates MHW in warming seas. The long-term temperature warming should be separated from the transient and abrupt temperature changes to well define MHW
🧪🌊 🧵
The Balearic Sea is in a near permanent MHW situation since November 2024.

🧪🌊Detrending should be applied in warming seas to obtain a good characterisation of marine heatwaves.
