JSIRS Special issue “Satellite Oceanography: Revolutionizing the Blue Economy”

The “Journal of the Indian Society of Remote Sensing (JISRS)” is the peer-reviewed premier Indian journal (impact factor of 1.6) in the field of remote sensing, with Springer as a publisher, which is a part of Springer Nature, a global publisher. Springer Nature aims to advance discovery by publishing insightful science supporting the development of new areas of research.

JISRS is announcing a special issue on “Satellite Oceanography: Revolutionizing the Blue Economy “.  ISRO’s Dr. Rashmi Sharma is one of the guest editors for this issue.

Call for Papers announcement for this Special Issue  is now available on JISRS, Springer website.  For more details, you may like to visit this website: https://www.springer.com/journal/12524

The paper submission deadline is October 31, 2021.

This week! UN Ocean Decade Laboratory: A Predicted Ocean Side Activities

This week there are many side activities (called satellite activities, but do not necessarily have to do with satellites – although some do!) for the UN Ocean Decade Laboratory: A Predicted Ocean. You can find out more here:

GEOAquaWatch especially recommends you check out one of the sessions below for the Co-designing integrated ocean observing and prediction capabilities: CoastPredict, Ocean Observing Co-Design and ForeSea in the Ocean Decade 

Session 1 | September 16th, 12 – 2 pm CEST

Session 2 | September 17th, 12 – 2 am CEST

We run two equal sessions to accommodate different time zones

This event provides an opportunity to learn more about and interact with the UN Ocean Decade of Science for Sustainable Development Programmes Ocean Observing Co-Design, CoastPredict, and ForeSea. These key GOOS and OceanPredict Programmes are endorsed by the UN Ocean Decade, and are now actively working on the next steps towards co-design. This Webinar will deliver the latest information on these developments, how the programmes will interlink, and how this will support a Predicted Ocean within the Ocean Decade. These three Programmes represent a cornerstone of collaborative action for the Decade from ocean observing and modelling communities. The programmes aim to significantly improve the current ocean observing infrastructure, ensure the co-design of ocean observing, modelling, and services for science and societal needs, with the inclusion of stakeholders in these co-design processes. Follow links above to read more about the individual programmes and join the Webinar to understand how they will interact to achieve a Predicted Ocean, and how you can support, collaborate, and interact with these key initiatives.

The agenda and further details can be found on the OceanPredict website:

We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated individual to support the research and teaching initiatives within Biological and Environmental Sciences.

Environmental and ecological processes operate over a range of spatiotemporal scales. The assessment of the impact of environmental change necessitates observations across these scales and often at high frequency. The successful candidate will join a vibrant research group that is pioneering in the use of optical and radar-based satellite remote sensing. The research group’s focus is largely around aquatic environments, especially in water quality and quantity and is supported by a number of EU Horizon 2020, UKRI NERC and European Space Agency funded research programmes. This position is not restricted to a water focus and candidates with a wider research portfolio are also encouraged.

For further information and informal discussion, please contact Professor Kirsty Park (k.j.park@stir.ac.uk).
