Optical Cloud Pixel Recovery via Machine Learning

Remote Sensing, 2017
Remote sensing derived Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is a widely used index to monitor vegetation and land use change. NDVI can be retrieved from publicly available data repositories of optical sensors such as Landsat, Moderate Resolution

Ecology of Acartia tonsa in Apalachicola Bay, Florida, and implications of river water diversion [PDF]

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2007
Acartia tonsa herbivory, carnivory, egg production rate, egg production efficiency, and abundance were studied within various salinity regimes in Apalachicola Bay throughout a 2 yr period. The percent of phytoplankton productivity ingested by A. tonsa ranged from 0 to 24% (median 0.4%). The diet of A. tonsa was mixed.

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1091-1119, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

The potential of wetlands and barrier islands as a coastal defense in mitigating the storm surge

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
A critical aspect of coastal protection is the role of barrier islands and wetlands in mitigating storm surges. However, the level of protection offered by these natural features can vary based on their geographical characteristics and the storms they ...

A Model for Bioaccumulation of Metals in Crassostrea virginica from Apalachicola Bay, Florida

American Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2005
Kinetics of bioaccumulation of the trace metals (Cd and Zn) by C. virginica were investigated in this study. A computer program, Oyster Bioaccumulation Model (OBM), was developed to simulate the accumulation of the metals from both dissolved (water column) and particulate (food) phases by C. virginica. The model is based on two main attributes: (1) the

Short‐Term Estuarine Phytoplankton Dynamics in Response to Hurricanes Along the Gulf Coast of America: A Variational Autoencoder (VAE) Approach With Satellite and Bio‐Optical Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Hurricanes drive diverse estuarine phytoplankton responses and can trigger cascading ecological and physicochemical impacts. Capturing these short‐term dynamics requires high spatiotemporal resolution. Here, we applied a globally‐applicable coastal ocean color algorithm, Variational Autoencoder (VAE), to Sentinel‐2 MSI imagery for chlorophyll ...

A Survey of Deepwater Horizon (DWH) Oil-Degrading Bacteria from the Eastern Oyster Biome and its Surrounding Environment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) accident led to the release of an estimated 794,936,474 liters of crude oil into the northern Gulf of Mexico over an 85 day period in 2010, resulting in the contamination of the Gulf of Mexico waters, sediments, permeable ...

Inundation Processes, Barrier Island Breaching, and Structure Impacts During Hurricane Michael (2018)

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract We demonstrate the increased ability to forecast hurricane impacts with a coupled numerical modeling system by simulating ocean waves, water levels, currents, sediment transport, and structural damage to predict inundation, coastal morphological change, and residential building impacts.

Collapse of the oyster population in Apalachicola Bay: cascading social impacts from an ecologically and culturally significant species

Ecology and Society
Historically fishery-dependent communities can have significant economic, social, and cultural ties to key species, the loss of which can cause cascading impacts throughout the community, extending beyond fishers.

Intertidal oyster reef elevation restoration: using a durable substrate on Lone Cabbage Reef, Florida, United States

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.
Abstract Introduction Oyster reef restoration has expanded in the Gulf of Mexico, yet many large‐scale projects fail to sustain ecological or physical outcomes. A key challenge is maintaining vertical relief in dynamic estuarine settings, where low elevation and cultch degradation limit recruitment and reef persistence.
