Developing Autonomous Observing Systems for Micronutrient Trace Metals.
(2019)
Trace metal micronutrients are integral to the functioning of marine ecosystems and the export of particulate carbon to the deep ocean. Although much progress has been made in mapping the distributions of metal micronutrients ...
OLCI-based NIR-red models for estimating chlorophyll- <i>a</i> concentration in productive coastal waters—a preliminary evaluation.
(2019)
We present here results that demonstrate the potential of the recently launched Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI) onboard the satellite Sentinel-3A to deliver accurate estimates of chlorophyll-a (chl-a) concentration ...
A new method for acquiring images of meiobenthic images using the FlowCAM.
(2018)
The purpose of this study was to develop a new method for investigating sediment-inhabiting meiobenthos using the Flow Cytometer And Microscope (FlowCAM). Meiobenthos are widely recognized as a useful indicator for assessing ...
Uncertainties of Estimating Extreme Significant Wave Height for Engineering Applications Depending on the Approach and Fitting Technique—Adriatic Sea Case Study.
(2020)
Studies on the extrapolation of extreme significant wave height, based on long-term databases, are extensively covered in literature. An engineer, working in the field of naval architecture, marine engineering, or maritime ...
Synergistic Exploitation of Hyper- and Multi-Spectral Precursor Sentinel Measurements to Determine Phytoplankton Functional Types (SynSenPFT).
(2017)
We derive the chlorophyll a concentration (Chla) for three main phytoplankton functional types (PFTs) – diatoms, coccolithophores and cyanobacteria – by combining satellite multispectral-based information, being of a high ...
Digital Twin Earth - Coasts: Developing a fast and physics-informed surrogate model for coastal floods via neural operators.
(Neural Information Processing Systems Foundation, 2021)
Developing fast and accurate surrogates for physics-based coastal and ocean models
is an urgent need due to the coastal flood risk under accelerating sea level rise,
and the computational expense of deterministic numerical ...
Good Practice Guide for Underwater Noise Measurement.
(National Measurement Office, Marine Scotland, The Crown Estate, Teddington, England, 2014)
This document provides guidance on best practice for in-situ measurement of underwater sound, for
processing the data, and for reporting the measurements using appropriate metrics .
Measured noise levels are sometimes ...
Guidelines for genetic data analysis.
(2018)
The IWC Scientific Committee recently adopted guidelines for quality control of DNA data. Once data have been collected, the next step is to analyse the data and make inferences that are useful for addressing practical ...
IWC photo-identification catalogues: draft guidelines.
(International Whaling Commission, Impington, UK, 2017)
The International Whaling Commission (IWC) has a history of using data and analyses from photo-identification
catalogues to assist with its work. (Within this document the term ‘photo-ID catalogue’ describes a database ...
Good Practice Guidelines for Hydrographic Surveys in New Zealand Ports and Harbours.
(New Zealand Government, Wellington, New Zealand, 2020)
These guidelines provide guidance to decision-makers and operators for planning, carrying out and
managing hydrographic surveys that:
support the safe navigation of vessels in New Zealand ports and harbours
help to ...
