Abstract/Description:
Stratification is an important driver for many biological and ecological processes
across benthic and pelagic habitats in the world ocean. However, stratification dynamics are
still undersampled due to limitations of current methods. Current methodologies rely primarily
on CTD and Niskin bottle data to develop stratification profiles, that are then compared over
time. Here, we describe two new methodologies which utilize remote sensing technologies for
examining stratification dynamics on discrete and continuous time scales.--Author's abstract
