Monitoring of Crustose Coralline Algae Using Low‐Altitude Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Intertidal Reefs

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
High‐resolution visible‐light imagery from low‐altitude unmanned aerial vehicles, combined with superpixel segmentation and a Random Forest classifier, provides an efficient and scalable framework for mapping and monitoring crustose coralline algae and reef habitats.

Inter-relationships between benthic macroinvertebrates and habitat types in Broke Inlet, south-western Australia. Report to the Ernest Hodgkin Trust for Estuary Education and Research, September 2008

open access: yes, 2008
The benthic macroinvertebrate fauna of Broke Inlet, a seasonally-open estuary located in the South coast of Western Australia was sampled seasonally between spring 2007 and autumn 2008 at 20 nearshore sites throughout the estuary. These sites were chosen

Akinete formation under nitrogen limitation in an invasive cyanobacterium

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Invasive species are a global problem threatening the function of ecosystems. Besides prominent species, microbial invaders are considered as “invisible” and have spread over almost all continents.

Structure and functional genes associated with carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur cycling processes in periphyton: A comparison between natural and artificial rivers

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Network analysis of functional genes among prokaryotes, and eukaryotes in natural and artificial rivers. Abstract Periphyton in aquatic ecosystems plays vital roles in the elemental cycle process and is vulnerable to anthropogenic interference. However, few studies have explored the elemental cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and ...

Mapping the shallow marine benthic habitats of Rottnest Island, Western Australia

open access: yes, 2007
The introduction of new, high resolution hyperspectral sensors has led to growing interest in the development of techniques to utilise data from these instruments for mapping the shallow marine environment.

Examining the Role of Economic Complexity and Climate Readiness in the Climate‐Fishing Nexus

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the climate‐fisheries association in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations from 1999 to 2022. A key objective is to explore the role of both the economic complexity index (ECI) and the climate readiness factor (READ) in the climate‐fishing nexus.

Changes in benthic ecosystem properties and functions across sedimentary gradients in estuaries

open access: yes, 2014
In estuaries, sediment properties dominate the inhabiting flora and fauna and their role in energy flows and nutrient cycling. Whilst sediment transport is a natural, key process, human intervention in estuaries and their catchments has altered the ...

The Unusual Mental Barbel of Antarctic «Cryonotothenioid» Fishes of the Subfamily Artedidraconinae: Morphology, Variability and Function

open access: yesFishes
The single mental barbel is a distinctive feature of the benthic Antarctic fishes of the «cryonotothenioid» subfamily Artedidraconinae. These barbels are unusual because their primary sensory modality is tactility, not chemosensation as in most other ...
