Island Invader: Rugulopteryx okamurae and the Challenge for Macaronesian Coasts

Aquatic 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 ...

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

SmartSys, 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 ...

Ship‐Based GNSS Tsunami Detection: Pilot Network Demonstration

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We demonstrate the potential for ship‐based GNSS systems to contribute to tsunami warning. We built a pilot network of 10 ships—8 commercial and 2 research vessels—equipped with a tsunami detection package consisting of a geodetic‐grade GNSS antenna and receiver, and satellite internet communications.
