A multispectral retrieval method is developed on the 100 km regional scale to extract
the temperature, particle size, fractional cover and 11-μm emissivity of clouds which
may be semitransparent in the infrared based on emitted radiances. The scheme utilizes
the nonlinear relationship between emitted radiances when clouds are semitransparent and...
The ecology of the North Atlantic right whale (Eubalaena glacialis) was examined at three spatial scales during the summer and early fall on their northern feeding grounds. The diving and foraging behavior of right whales was investigated at spatial scales of hundreds to thousands of meters by tagging right whales...
