Methods for the Study of Marine Biodiversity.
(Springer Open, 2017)
Recognition of the threats to biodiversity and its importance to society has led to calls for globally coordinated sampling of trends in marine ecosystems. As a step to defining such efforts, we review current methods of ...
The Argos-CLS Kalman Filter: Error Structures and State-Space Modelling Relative to Fastloc GPS Data.
(2015)
Understanding how an animal utilises its surroundings requires its movements through
space to be described accurately. Satellite telemetry is the only means of acquiring movement data for many species however data are ...
Protocol and sampling design for marine diversity for the South American Research group on Coastal Ecosystems (SARCE).
(South American Research Group on Coastal Ecosystems (SARCE), Caracas, Venezuela, 2012)
This study is aimed to be carried out in most countries of the entire South American
continent. As of today, scientists from Colombia (Pacific coast), Venezuela, Trinidad and
Tobago, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, ...
Standardised survey procedures for monitoring rocky and coral reef ecological communities.
(Reef Life Survey, Hobart, Tasmania, 2015)
This manual describes the standard Reef
Life Survey (RLS) methods for estimating
densities
of fishes, large
macroinvertebrates, and sessile communities on rocky and coral
reefs.
These (and compatible)
methods ...
Beyond the benchtop and the benthos: Dataset management planning and design for time series of ocean carbonate chemistry associated with Durafet ® -based pH sensors.
(2016)
To better understand the impact of ocean acidification on marine ecosystems, an important ongoing research priority for marine scientists is to characterize present-day pH variability. Following recent technological advances, ...
Systematic global assessment of reef fish communities by the Reef Life Survey program.
(2014)
Discussion of the Reef Life Survey Methods Manual: https://www.oceanbestpractices.net/handle/11329/447. Established in 2007 as a means to overcome the shortage of resources and capacity to provide
quantitative data on ...
Recommendations for improved and coherent acquisition and processing of backscatter data from seafloor-mapping sonars.
(2018)
Multibeam echosounders are becoming widespread for the purposes of seafloor bathymetry mapping, but the acquisition and the use of seafloor backscatter measurements, acquired simultaneously with the bathymetric data, are ...
SoundToxins manual: Puget Sound Harmful Algal Bloom Monitoring Program. [Revised December 2015].
(NOAA/NMFS/NWFSC Marine Biotoxins Program for Washington Sea Grant, Seattle, WA, 2016)
Shellfish are critical to the culture, economy and ecology of Puget Sound. They shape
habitats, provide food for humans and other species, and perform water-filtering
functions important to all organisms that live in or ...
Manual de Referencia en Mejores Prácticas de Gestión de Datos Oceánicos. Número 3/2018
(DIMAR, Bogotá D.C., Colombia, 2018)
The “Colombian Oceanographic Data and Information Coordination Committee” (CTN Diocean, by its initials in Spanish) was created by Resolution No. 005/2015 of the Colombian Ocean Commission (CCO, by its initials in Spanish), ...
Improved Calibration and Data Processing Procedures of OPUS Optical Sensor for High-Resolution in situ Monitoring of Nitrate in Seawater.
(2021)
Nitrate, an essential nutrient for primary production in natural waters, is optically
detectable in the ultraviolet spectral region of 217–240 nm, with no chemical reagents
required. Optical nitrate sensors allow monitoring ...
