A machine learning assisted method for rapidly annotating benthic megafauna in large volumes of marine imagery

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent technological advancements have rapidly expanded our capacity for collecting image data in the marine environment, but processing images into meaningful ecological metrics remains a manual, time‐consuming, and biased process. This is particularly challenging with electro‐optical cabled imaging systems which generate images at a rate ...

Development and Improvement of Habitat Suitability Criteria for Instream Habitat Assessments Conducted in Support of Environmental Flows in Florida

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...

Multistressor Interaction of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and Temperature in Two Estuarine Fish Species, Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) and Sheepshead Minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS), is characterized by a long, fluorinated carbon chain which makes it ideal for oil‐ and water‐repellent products but detrimental for the environment, where it persists and accumulates in organisms.

Beyond Removal Efficiency: Environmental Risk Assessment of Tartrazine Degradation via ZnO and TiO2 Nanoparticles in Mussels

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tartrazine (TZ) is a widely used synthetic azo dye with high aqueous stability, resulting in persistence in wastewater. Photoreactive nanomaterials, principally zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs), are frequently employed for dye removal under light‐exposed conditions; nevertheless, their ecotoxicological ...
