Harmful Introductions and Ballast Water Management- an Emerging Problem in the Northern Adriatic

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2002
The article calls our attention to the existing dangers of potentiallyharmful 01ganisms being introduced in our sea withships ballast water and to the need of having this maller undercontrol.

The Greenland–Scotland Ridge in a Changing Ocean: Time to Act?

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greenland–Scotland Ridge is a submarine mountain that rises up to 500 m below the sea surface and extends from the east coast of Greenland to the continental shelf of Iceland and across the Faroe Islands to Scotland. The ridge not only separates deeper ocean basins on either side, that is, the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans, but also ...

Gendered Harmony and Unsung Collections: Two Debussy Rabbit Holes

open access: yesMusic Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This review article on Mark McFarland's The Musical Relationship between Claude Debussy and Igor Stravinsky (2024) offers a critical reading of this recent text and treats its content as a springboard for the exploration of two issues untapped in existing musicological discourse.

Track behaviour: the importance of the sleeper to ballast interface

open access: yes, 2008
The aim of this research is to develop a fuller understanding of the mechanical behaviour of thesleeper/ballast interface, related in particular, to the forces applied by high speed tilting trains onlow radius curves.

Island Invader: Rugulopteryx okamurae and the Challenge for Macaronesian Coasts

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Since 2015, Rugulopteryx okamurae, a brown seaweed native to the Northwest Pacific, has become one of the most conspicuous marine invaders in the European continental coastal waters. Its recent establishment in the Macaronesian archipelagos (the Azores, Madeira and Canary Islands) has produced significant ecological changes, including ...

Application of Hydrocyclone and UV Radiation as a Ballast Water Treatment Method

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2010
The ballast water exchange methods in open sea are, for the time being, the prevailing procedures accepted by shipowners. However, such methods do not guarantee full efficacy in elimination of allochthonous organisms.

Biomonitoring 3.0: Beyond Taxa Lists to Evidence‐Tiered Monitoring of Ecosystem Dynamics and Interactions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Biomonitoring has scaled rapidly with high‐throughput sequencing, but most programs still culminate in taxa lists that are weakly linked to the interaction dynamics driving ecosystem change. Here we propose Biomonitoring 3.0 as interaction‐ready, time‐resolved monitoring that layers eDNA inventories with time‐structured sampling, interaction‐explicit ...

Dynamic effect of high speed railway traffic loads on the ballast track settlement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The traditional ballast track structures are still being used in high speed railways lines with success, however technical problems or performance features have led to non-ballast track solution in some cases.

Actuation Strategies for Underwater Jet‐Propelled Soft Robots

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 6, Page 3868-3892, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This review article examines jet‐propulsion mechanisms in underwater soft robotic systems, focusing exclusively on physically fabricated and experimentally validated robots. Covering research published from 2013 to 2025, this study classifies and evaluates jet‐propulsion robots based on their actuation mechanisms.

Floating Platform Geometry as a Frequency‐Selective Mechanism for Triboelectric Wave Energy Harvesting

open access: yesSmartSys, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ocean wave energy has enormous potential for sustainable power generation but conventional technologies often face challenges in efficiency, durability, and adaptability to specific sites. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) are able to convert irregular and low frequency water motion into electrical energy, but their performance depends on ...
