Unified Geomorphological Analysis Workflows with Benthic Terrain Modeler

open access: yes, 2018
High resolution remotely sensed bathymetric data is rapidly increasing in volume, but analyzing this data requires a mastery of a complex toolchain of disparate software, including computing derived measurements of the environment.

Impacts of land-based pollutants on water chemistry and benthic macroinvertebrates community in a coastal lagoon, Lagos, Nigeria

open access: yesScientific African, 2020
Tropical coastal waters are prone to increased influx of pollutants from land during the rains. The effects of pollution influx on the water and macrobenthic fauna of a coastal lagoon, Lagos, Nigeria were investigated.

How Much Shallow Coral Habitat Is There on the Great Barrier Reef?

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Australia’s Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is a globally unique and precious national resource; however, the geomorphic and benthic composition and the extent of coral habitat per reef are greatly understudied.

Climate Change and invasibility of the Antarctic benthos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Benthic communities living in shallow-shelf habitats in Antarctica (<100-m depth) are archaic in their structure and function. Modern predators, including fast-moving, durophagous (skeleton-crushing) bony fish, sharks, and crabs, are rare or absent ...

Classification and Mapping of Benthic Biotopes in Arctic and Sub-Arctic Norwegian Waters

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
In this paper, we describe the species composition of biotopes occurring in a wide range of environments and present their geographic distribution based on results from quantitative analyses of video-records collected as part of the Norwegian seabed ...

Benthic–limnetic morphological variation in fishes: Dissolved organic carbon concentration produces unexpected patterns

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Variation in traits related to foraging and locomotion in benthic and limnetic habitats has been observed in many fishes. Benthic and limnetic food chain productivity in lakes is strongly influenced by the concentration of dissolved organic carbon (DOC ...

Annelid Fauna of the Prince Gustav Channel, a Previously Ice-Covered Seaway on the Northeastern Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The Prince Gustav Channel is a narrow seaway located in the western Weddell Sea on the northeastern-most tip of the Antarctic Peninsula. The channel is notable for both its deep (>1200 m) basins, and a dynamic glacial history that most recently ...

Effects of hypoxia on benthic macrofauna and bioturbation in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence, Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The bottom water in the 4300 m deep Lower St. Lawrence Estuary (LSLE) is persistently hypoxic in contrast to the normoxic bottom waters in the Gulf of St. Lawrence (GSL). We photographed the seabed at 11 stations in the Estuary and Gulf of St.

Chilling damage to mangrove mollusk species by the 2008 cold event in Southern China

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
The frequency, duration, and intensity of extreme cold events are widely regarded as primary constraints on the upper latitudinal limits of mangroves. Little data are available on the consequences of recovery (or lack thereof) of non‐floristic components

Benthic Habitat Mapping Model and Cross Validation Using Machine-Learning Classification Algorithms

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
This research was aimed at developing the mapping model of benthic habitat mapping using machine-learning classification algorithms and tested the applicability of the model in different areas.
