The effect of resolution on high latitude cloud track winds produced from AVHRR imagery
Read more of: The effect of resolution on high latitude cloud track winds produced from AVHRR imagerySequences of images from geostationary satellites have been used for some time to track clouds and so produce an estimate of the wind at cloud height (see/1/ and /2/). However, […]

Effects of chronic crude oil exposure on early developmental stages of the Northern krill (Meganyctiphanes norvegica)
Read more of: Effects of chronic crude oil exposure on early developmental stages of the Northern krill (Meganyctiphanes norvegica)Rising oil and gas activities in northern high latitudes have led to an increased risk of petroleum pollution in these ecosystems. Further, seasonal high UV radiation at high latitudes may […]
