A hybrid CART-GAMs model to evaluate benthic macroinvertebrate habitat suitability in the Pearl River Estuary, China

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Benthic macroinvertebrates are an important part of the aquatic food chain in estuaries. Therefore, understanding their associated habitat requirements is critical in maintaining estuarine ecosystem stability, which has until now been evaluated using ...

Inconsistent relationships among protection, benthic assemblage, habitat complexity and fish biomass in Mediterranean temperate rocky reefs

Ecological Indicators, 2021
Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been proved to effectively protect and restore fish assemblages. There is mixed evidence regarding the effects of MPAs on benthic assemblages, habitat complexity, and how protection might mediate the effects of habitat ...

Semiautomated Mapping of Benthic Habitats and Seagrass Species Using a Convolutional Neural Network Framework in Shallow Water Environments

Remote Sensing, 2020
Benthic habitats are structurally complex and ecologically diverse ecosystems that are severely vulnerable to human stressors. Consequently, marine habitats must be mapped and monitored to provide the information necessary to understand ecological ...

Reef fishes of Saba Bank, Netherlands Antilles : Assemblage structure across a gradient of habitat types [PDF]

, 2010
Saba Bank is a 2,200 km2 submerged carbonate platform in the northeastern Caribbean Sea off Saba Island, Netherlands Antilles. The presence of reef-like geomorphic features and significant shelf edge coral development on Saba Bank have led to the ...

Automatic Semantic Segmentation of Benthic Habitats Using Images from Towed Underwater Camera in a Complex Shallow Water Environment

Remote Sensing, 2022
Underwater image segmentation is useful for benthic habitat mapping and monitoring; however, manual annotation is time-consuming and tedious. We propose automated segmentation of benthic habitats using unsupervised semantic algorithms.

Benthic and hyporheic invertebrate community responses to seasonal flow recession in a groundwater-dominated stream [PDF]

, 2011
Natural hydrological variability in lotic ecosystems can include prolonged periods of flow recession. A reduction in discharge is accompanied by abiotic changes in benthic and hyporheic habitats, often including reductions in s habitat availability ...
