Exploratory study of the Sentinel-3 level 2 product for monitoring chlorophyll-a and assessing ecological status in Danish seas.

In situ Chl-a data were used to perform empirical calibration and validation of Sentinel-3 level 2 product in Danish marine waters. Comparing in situ data with both same-day and ±5 days moving averaged Sentiel-3 Chl-a values yielded two similar positive correlations (p > 0.05) with r values of 0.

Contribution of boulder reef habitats to oxygen dynamics of a shallow estuary.

We assessed the importance of boulder reefs to the oxygen dynamics of a shallow estuary during two growing seasons in 2017 and 2018. Using open-system diel oxygen measurements and benthic and pelagic incubations, we evaluated the relative contribution of pelagic and benthic habitats to the ecosystem metabolism along a depth gradient in two areas, with (Reef) and without (Bare) boulder reefs in the Limfjorden, Denmark. System integrated areal rates of gross primary production (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (ER) both increased with depth in both areas.
