Duck Tales: Spatio‐temporal dynamics of habitat use and prey relationships of a diving duck and its implication for conservation management

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Shows the spatiotemporal predictability of wintering eiders based on monitoring data from 1993–2023 with intertidal and subtidal Marine Protected Areas (yellow and green, respectively), and a depiction of the current mismatch between eider hotspots and protection measures. Abstract Migratory animals often follow predictable spatiotemporal distributions

Geometric and Radiometric Correction of Multibeam Backscatter Derived from Reson 8101 Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A common by-product of multibeam surveys is a measure of the backscattered acoustic intensity from the seafloor. These data are of immense interest to geologists and geoscientists since maps of the acoustic backscatter strength can be used to infer ...

Lack of Compliance in Gillnet Fisheries Regulations Increases Risk to a Vulnerable Species

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents an analysis of regulatory compliance in a Brazilian gillnet fishery, based on Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) tracking data. Satellite transmissions records, interpreted as proxies for gillnet haulings events, were analyzed and classified using a neural network to assess the level of compliance of the gillnet fleet.

Ensemble Machine Learning Approaches for Bathymetry Estimation in Multi-Spectral Images

open access: yesGeomatics
Traditional bathymetry measures require a large number of human hours, and many bathymetry records are obsolete or missing. Automated measures of bathymetry would reduce costs and increase accessibility for research and applications.

Environmental Drivers of Jumbo Squid During Fishery Collapse in the Gulf of California (2019–2024)

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) is a cephalopod endemic to the eastern Pacific with significant ecological and economic importance. Its exploitation in the Gulf of California (GC) peaked in the 1990s, with catches exceeding 100,000 tons, but collapsed in 2009 and virtually disappeared by 2015, largely due to environmental changes and ...

Using the Diet Composition of Adult Chinook Salmon to Understand the Regional Structure of Salish Sea Forage Communities

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish and other forage species are patchily distributed over space and time, resulting in variable foraging conditions experienced by their predators. The high‐resolution data necessary to understand the spatiotemporal structure of forage communities are challenging to collect with expensive fishery‐independent surveys, meaning ...

The Staircase Chart: Visualising Vertical and Cross‐Shelf Movements and Dispersal of Early‐Life Fish, Applied to Japanese Jack Mackerel

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dispersal during early life stages is a critical process shaping marine fish connectivity and population dynamics, yet direct field observations at the individual level remain elusive. This has limited our understanding of the factors controlling dispersal, including the impact of active swimming by larvae and juveniles. Here, we present a new

GRDL: A New Global Reservoir Area‐Storage‐Depth Data Set Derived Through Deep Learning‐Based Bathymetry Reconstruction

open access: yesWater Resources Research
Reservoirs play a critical role in the global water cycle by regulating the flow of water from the environment into human systems. Accurate estimation of the area‐storage‐depth relationships for global reservoirs is essential for effective hydrological ...

RV Sonne Cruise 200, 11 Jan-11 Mar 2009. Jakarta - Jakarta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
All plate boundaries are divided into segments - pieces of fault that are distinct from oneanother, either separated by gaps or with different orientations.
